Painting outdoor resin furniture is an easy and cost effective way to update the look of your patio. Not only can it make your furniture look new again, but it can also help protect it from sun damage and other weather elements. With a few simple steps, you can give your resin furniture a fresh new look that will last for years to come.
Start by cleaning the furniture with a mild detergent and water mixture. This will help remove any dirt or grime that has built up over time.
Once the furniture is clean and dry, you’ll need to sand it down with 220-grit sandpaper. This will give the paint something to adhere to and create a smooth finish.
Next, apply a coat of exterior primer specifically designed for use on plastic surfaces. You may need to apply two coats of primer depending on how porous the material is. Make sure to let each coat dry completely before moving onto the next one.
Once the primer has dried, you can start painting your resin furniture with an exterior grade spray paint made specifically for plastic surfaces. Start by spraying in light layers from a distance of 8-10 inches away from the surface.
Don’t rush this process because it takes time for each layer to dry before you can move onto the next one. After you’ve completed all of your coats, let them sit undisturbed for 24 hours so they have time to cure properly.
Conclusion:
