How To Resurface a Sink Finish Part 3

Kitchen And Bathroom Renovation : How To Resurface a Sink Finish Part 3

How To

1.Wipe down the surface with tack cloth. Remove all the dust and lint—it’s crucial to work in a dust-free environment.
2.Mix together the epoxy paint parts. (Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.)
3.Pour about one-third of the mixed epoxy paint into the roller tray. Evenly coat the roller and begin rolling the sink.
4.Coat the entire surface with a thin layer of paint. Paint slowly and gently. To avoid runs, do not overload the roller with paint. Use the brush to get to areas the roller can’t reach. Don’t try to roll over areas that have begun to dry. It’s normal if some of the original surface shows through the first coat.


5. Let dry according to the manufacturer’s instructions, and then repeat with a second coat. Start with a fresh roller. You may need to apply a third coat.
6. Allow the sink to dry and cure as indicated. Keep the sink off-limits and dust free during this time.
7. Reapply caulking if needed.


Refinishing Plastic and Fiberglass Surfaces

You can refresh plastic and fiberglass sinks and tub surrounds with a refinishing kit designed especially for these surfaces. This product is typically a water-based formula, which means that it’s easier to work with—it has shorter drying times and less fumes, and it cleans up with soap and water.
