Painting a Glass Splashback

Hi there, 

 

Is is possible to paint a glass splash back to change the colour? If so, what products would you recommend? 

 

Cheers!

Hi @fayelouise 

 

If you mask of the bench top and other areas, you want clean.   Any craft spray paint will do to colour the glass as an opaque colour not translucent.

 

This will give you a nice even sprayed finish like the original glass.

 

Or 

 

Why not consider installing a new  Polymer coloured splash back over the top of the glass one as all you need is a few dots of silicon to hold it on the wall.

 

eg Coloured  splash backs

Hi @fayelouise,

 

Products like Flood 500ml ESP Easy Surface Paint Preparation are designed to prime smooth surfaces such as glass to make them ready for painting.

 

Be aware that if this is directly behind a stovetop, I wouldn't advise painting it due to the fire risk.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.
