How Do I Paint Brass?Updated 2 years ago
Painting is a great way to touch things up and bring new life to objects. But when it comes to painting brass objects, such as lights, fixtures, and hardware, things get a little more difficult. It is possible to paint brass, however, and the trick is to properly clean and prime the metal before painting. This will provide a good surface for the paint to stick to and make the painting job smoother, more even, and longer-lasting.
Wash down carefully with Tikkurila roof cleaning agent and ensure all areas of grease and contamination are removed. Allow the surface to thoroughly dry. Lightly abrade with non-metallic abrasive prior to painting
