Am thinking of painting our vinyl shutters. Your DIY instructions make it sound so easy to do. Do you recommended a paint brand over another? Honestly, I used to recommend different brands. These days I have found that Behr, Sherwin Williams, Benjamin Moore and others all offer amazing products all with huge warranties.
It's really about what is most convenient to you and who will offer the best service in your area. Can I Paint Vinyl Shutters? Step 1: Removing The Shutters The first step in properly painting your vinyl shutters is to physically remove them from your home. Step 2: Prepping The Shutters for Paint Once you have the shutters removed, place them onto a drop cloth on the ground, driveway or garage.
Finally, make sure to vacuum your shutters clean and allow them to dry completely. Step 4: Top Coating The Shutters After priming your vinyl shutters, another light scuff sand with your medium grit 3M sanding sponges and a quick vacuum is recommended.
Step 5: Reinstalling The Shutters You should allow your shutters plenty of time to thoroughly dry before you try to reinstall them.

Initially, vinyl can seem difficult to paint, but this is often because we treat vinyl improperly. There are nine sets so I hate to buy new shutters. The shutters are I guess rigid vinyl and I pressure washed them all, with about half I had to blast off came off relatively easily a single coat of paint. I have plenty of oil based paint in the color I want and I will spray the shutters but any ideas as to primer? I hate to buy a bunch of spray cans of plastic primer and the only way I see to get some I can spray on my own is to buy 2 quarts.
More than I can imagine ever using. Do I paint this, mask it, or try to take it off before painting the doors? Thanks, Ray Marshall. I have exterior vinyl doors we painted them last year before seeing this article on Krylon Fusion. Anyway they came out streaked and looking orange peel. What can I use to remove that paint and start over the correct way? I am going to paint my faded shutters which are now a lighter green of dark they used to be, they are prolly 15 years old.
Would I be able to paint them a maroon dark burgundy? I will follow steps on cleaning them properly. Do u think I need to put a,primer on them? And what kind of paint is best for doing this job. The vinyl green shutters have faded and I want to re-paint them dark green. What paint do you recommend? I also want to paint both white vinyl covered metal doors. What steps do I take? Can i paint pvc doors outside with masonary paint i have a big tub which i bought 4 my door stone walls.
Wind blew down 1- 20 year old plastic shutter. Painted brand new shutters to match what the color on older shutters had. What is wrong. We have hunter green vinyl shutters of unknown quality and 12 yrs old.. The ones directly exposed to the sun had this faded chalky whitish oxidative look. It did not come off on my fingers though it sure looked like it would. I was on the net for hours and finally locked on to sanding with ….
Then I had this idea. Since I retired from having my own cleaning biz and I had 2 gallons of an Armour All type product why not try it. Golly gee it worked. The test area looked brand new after 24 hours or enough to say it definitely enhanced curb appeal. Hope this helps. The way I have it figured once you initiate the paint gig then you are in for the long haul..
I would rather paint something more exciting and less tedious for my home. Do you need to take down shutters when you paint them or can you keep them on the house? Thankyou so much. Why have a blog and not respond?
Thanks for your question. Take care! A contractor replaced one of my damaged vinyl shutters with a new one after he had painted it.
Anyway, 3 weeks later, I saw paint peeling off, and now it looks like leopard spots. He said he was going to fix it and asked if I still had the extra paint he had given me.
Should I get some sort of primer? And how long should he wait between coats? Thank you. Then the Glidden paint should hold up well. Thanks for your question! Hi, Weldon, Everyone has their preference, and ours is with a brush. I want to paint them a grey blue color. The Krylon spray paint does not have very many color choices. Can the cans of pant be tinted? Just to clarify there are 25 of them prime and then spray paint or brush paint them?
Thanks for the help…have lots and lots of repairs and renovations to do. Hi, Lindy, We recommend contacting the manufacturer for product-specific questions. Our shutters on our home say do not paint on the backs of them.
Is it safe to paint them regardless?
