Kitchen splashback refresh with paint

I researched so many options for a splashback to cover the holes after I removed some shelves and a knife block.  It was going to be time consuming and costly.

 

Simple solution was to fill the holes and paint the tiles!

Steps

Step 1

Wash the tiles using sugar soap.

 

 

Step 2

Sand using a sander and wipe clean.

Step 3

Fill the holes with the putty, following the instructions on the pack.

Step 4

Once dry, sand to a smooth finish.

Step 5

Paint the undercoat, then two coats of top coat, leaving until completely dry between coats.

Step 6

Your splashback painting upgrade really shines and brings your kitchen together. What an amazing transformation, your kitchen totally looks different, and you did it all with just paint.

 

Thank you so much for sharing your kitchen repainting project.
