Krylon representative Donna Babylon shows how to create a clever, yet easy home office for a student or professional.
Materials:
2 metal file cabinets
1 standard door
sandpaper
tack cloth
primer
Make It Stone paint
Living Colors paint
Steps:
- Using coarse sandpaper, sand the file cabinets (this allows the paint to adhere to the cabinet surface). Next, take a tack cloth and rub over the cabinets for a clean surface.
- Select a primer and paint the cabinets. Donna chose a grey color. The darker the outer coat of paint, the darker the primer should be. Let dry.
- Next, spray the file cabinets the color of your choice. Donna used a hunter green. Let dry and add a second coat.
- Mask off the areas on the cabinet where you do not want the stone spray to hit and apply the stone spray. Let dry.
- Sand and prime the door the same way as the file cabinets. Most doors will have the hole for the doorknob which allows for electrical cords.
- Once the door is spray painted, mask off the areas you do not want to marble and then apply the marbling spray paint in a coordinating color.
