DIY Black Window Casing With Spray Paint

Sometimes it feels like I have a never ending list of house projects going on. And while I'm not afraid of a serious DIY project, sometimes it's nice to do something simple and fast but gives big results. Spray painting window casings does just that! I recently added board and batten in my son's room and painted everything white. The walls and windows all seemed to blend together so in order to make something pop, I spray painted his window casings black. Super simple and really the only part that took the longest was taping everything off. 

Supplies Needed:

Krylon Color Maxx Primer (Gray)

Rust-oleum Satin Paint and Primer In One (I used Black) 

Painters Tape

Plastic Drop Cloths - (I used 5)

Mask

Goggles 

Fan

Hair Net - (You do not want spray paint in your hair!)

 

I started by taping off around each window, leaving the casing exposed. Then I went back in and taped the glass. I used blue painters tape and it took about a roll and a half for the entire wall. After the windows are taped, I put one plastic dropcloth down on the floor and then taped another one to the wall, one between each window, and another above the window to create a tent. I covered the larger areas with the plastic but used the tape for the detail work. It was a bit tedious but I took my time with the detail work to make sure the lines were straight so I didn't end up with paint in places I didn't want. 

The grilles are the pieces that run up and across the middle of the window (to create a grid effect) The grilles on these windows are in between the glass - so there was not an actual piece of the grille that was on top to paint like the surrounding outside pieces. I still wanted these to be black and have the same look, so I taped the glass and followed the outline of the grille. I then just spray painted the actual window so it looks like the grille is painted too. It's really just the glass that is painted but you can't even tell unless you looked really really close. You can see in the picture below how I taped it off. 



Once everything was covered, I first used Krylon Color Maxx Primer in Gray, adding 2 coats and waiting about 15 minutes between coats. Then I used Rust-oleum Paint and Primer In One, in the color Black. I sprayed two coats of the black waiting 15 minutes between coats. I let the paint dry for another 15 minutes before removing the tape. I want the paint to still be a bit tacky when I pull it which prevents the paint from peeling. 

 

There you have it! Super simple DIY that makes a big impact!

  • HIRE META TECH RECOVERY PRO TO RECOVER YOUR LOST OR STOLEN BITCOIN/ETH/USDT/NFT AND CRYPTOCURRENCY

    The exceptional team at META Tech Recovery Pro, whom I now consider family, has my utmost gratitude. It would be remiss of me not to acknowledge the outstanding service they provided. I have personally experienced the unfortunate reality that even innocent investors can be defrauded. I made an ill-advised investment, resulting in the loss of USDC and USDT. However, while perusing an online article, I came across a review of Taylor’s experience, which highlighted META Tech Recovery Pro’s success in helping her and her family recover funds lost to a scam. Upon contacting this cybersecurity firm, they successfully aided in the retrieval of my stolen digital USDC assets. I am genuinely impressed by their remarkable service and professionalism. I had not anticipated the possibility of recovering my funds until I presented my situation and all relevant documentation to META Tech Recovery Pro. I was astonished that they recovered my funds within 28 hours. My USDT assets were, without question, successfully recovered from the fraudulent platform. I would like to extend my sincere appreciation to you, Sir. I wholeheartedly endorse META Tech Recovery Pro for any requirements related to bitcoin recovery, digital funds recovery, hacking, and cybersecurity.
