How to paint a washing machine

Clean the surface of your washing machine from dust, dirt, carefully remove the fat, especially if the machine for a long time stood in the kitchen. If the surface of your washing machine showed signs of rust, remove the old paint. Carefully treat surface with the front and sides of the spray, which contains a remover for paint.

When the paint on the surface of the washing machine will "swell", remove its remains with a metal spatula, and if in some places the old paint stays glued tightly, and once again apply to such places by wash from the spray. When you remove the old paint you can use a brush on metal, but it can be used only for cleaning metal surfaces where paint has been removed with the help of paint. In case if some areas will remain part of the old paint, evenly paint the surface of the washing machine would be impossible.

Wanting to paint a washing machine under the "sea wave" or applied to its surface a different pattern, prepare before staining cut from cardboard stencils. Gently place them on the surface of the washing machine, securing with tape, and then apply the pattern using spray cans of coloured paint alternately. But in areas where the colored pattern elements are joined together, very carefully apply paint and do not remove the stencil until it is completely dry.
