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!

  • Being naturally sceptical, I never thought that money lost to con artists and their Ponzi schemes could really be found and recovered. I cried out to the Capitalix organisation to stick to our original conditions and give me my money back, but they refused. They like to claim that I have to pay a fee each time I try to withdraw my money, but I believe it’s just a ruse to keep me from getting the money they want by telling me new lies and taking advantage of my desperation until they wear me out. Things moved quickly as soon as I involved WIZARD JAMES RECOVERY. Compared to what I experienced when I attempted to handle the Capitalix group on my own, it was like night and day. Engage the experts; the risk is worthwhile. These are the greatest dudes ever. It is impossible for you to fight fraudulent investment cases like this because of our lack of expertise in this field. Even if you are correct, if you refuse to pay, they will hang your assets and destroy your financial future. Furthermore, nobody is interested in “why” it was ruined—they only want to hear your tale and then point the finger at you for making an effort to change your life. What then do you do? The irony is in the fact that you continue to provide money to the scammers even if you don’t agree with the accusations in order for them to release your money—you never get compensated, you just end up ruining yourself further. After battling this problem for over a year, I finally told myself the truth—that I had been duped—and reported my case to WIZARD JAMES RECOVERY in hopes that they would step in and assist me in regaining possession of my belongings before it was too late. My money moved from being pending to being available in my Coinbase wallet in less than 72 hours after the recovery process was started and quickly completed. Total turnaround. Wizard James rectified in 72 hours what took me a year of work and still had no resolution. I’ve been beating myself up for not asking for assistance sooner, but I just didn’t think it was possible. However they did. Reach out to them today on any of their available support channels to get help,

  • If you’re not familiar with cryptocurrency trading, I strongly advise you to either stay away from it completely or invest very cautiously. I was forced to invest a significant amount of my life savings on a forex platform to increase my profits, but I ultimately lost roughly 95,000 USD to this investment scam. I was not allowed to take my money out after I had invested and made a profit. I sent a letter to customer service, but it was ineffective, so I realized I had been duped. I was fortunate enough to come across a genuine deal retrieval WEB WIZARD after much looking for ways to acquire assistance. I decided to give it a shot and explained my condition to them. they gave me their word that they would help me get my money back. Honestly, they performed a fantastic job, and my money was recovered in my wallet in less than 24 hours without any upfront payment. I appreciate having encountered WEB WIZARD with such exceptional abilities, it’s truly remarkable.
