Whether you’re trying to update furniture or recoat tile, choosing the right specialty coating for your DIY project is essential. The right coating will add durability and functionality as well as aesthetic appeal to your home update.
Recoating Tile
When your tile needs a fresh look, adding a specialized coating can extend its durability and longevity. Rust-Oleum’s XIM Advanced Technology UMA Bonder is renowned for bonding exceptionally well to glossy, non-porous surfaces like porcelain, glazed tile, and glass. Ideal for both interior and exterior applications, this product features low VOCs and minimal odor compared to traditional bonding primers.
Covering Rust
While it’s always recommended to sand down and clean surfaces before painting, sometimes you need a coating that can adhere directly to metal and stop corrosion in its tracks. Sherwin-Williams Opti-Bond Multi-Surface Coating inhibits rust development and dries quickly. Formulated for industrial durability, it offers exceptional long-term corrosion resistance.
Scrubbable Paint for High-Traffic Interiors
With children and pets keeping a home lively, finding a paint that is both low-toxicity and highly scrubbable can be a challenge. Miller Paint Co. Water-Based Acrylic Epoxy offers chemical and moisture resistance—making it durable against pet accidents and fully washable for impromptu marker drawings on the walls.
Repainting Metal & Steel
Chipped steel handrails and banisters are hard to avoid over years of daily wear and tear. PPG Paints PITTHANE Ultra Gloss Urethane Enamel delivers excellent gloss and color retention while offering high resistance to impact, abrasion, and harsh environmental exposure.
Coating Porches & Decks
Porches and decks take a beating as high-traffic outdoor areas. PPG Paints Break-Through! 250 Interior/Exterior Water-Borne Acrylic is a fast-drying, ultra-durable coating tough enough for commercial stadium use. It provides a hard, scratch-resistant finish that keeps your porch or deck pristine without constant touch-ups.
Refinishing Wood
When you want natural woodwork to pop, applying a quality stain or varnish can transform your interior trim and furniture. The complete Saman Water-Based Wood Stain lineup is an eco-friendly brand offering a wide array of rich colors. Formulated to dry fast without raising the wood grain, it’s an ideal choice for kitchen cabinets, handrails, and furniture pieces.
