Step 1:

Wipe down walls with a damp cloth to ensure they are clean and free of dust. Allow to dry.

Step 1 of 5

Step 2:

Tape around the vanity frame and countertop edges with painter’s tape to ensure you don’t get primer or paint where you don’t want it!

Step 2 of 5

Step 3:

To ensure a mildew resistant primer coat, apply 1 coat of KILZ® Kitchen & Bath Primer (stirring thoroughly before and occasionally during use) to the walls and allow to dry. Apply primer using a brush first to “cut in" around the edges, then use a roller to fill in.

Step 3 of 5

Step 4:

Once primer is dry, apply KILZ Tribute® in White Modern using the same application method as the primer (using a brush first to cut in around the edges 4 to 6 feet at a time, then use a roller to fill in those sections before moving along).

Step 4 of 5

Step 5:

Remove the tape before the paint is fully dry.

THE BIG REVEAL

A bathroom suspended in time is brought to the present with primer and paint freshening up a floating vanity and turning the boring beige space into a light and airy retreat. For this bathroom transformation, KILZ® Kitchen & Bath Primer is used prior to painting – easily covering dark beige walls to ensure the new white paint will shine in its purest form and properly preparing the wood vanity for a fresh coat of soothing blue paint.

A water-based primer-sealer-stainblocker specially designed for residential surfaces in high humidity, moisture and temperature environments, KILZ® Kitchen & Bath Primer ensures a mildew resistant primer coat, essential for almost any bathroom renovation. It also offers excellent adhesion to most interior surfaces and provides a sound anchor for paints.

Once the primer is properly applied to the walls and vanity and allowed to dry, the bathroom is ready for paint! KILZ Tribute® in White Modern TB-09 brightens up the walls, while the same paint in Northern Sky TB-42 adds an airiness to the substantially sized vanity. KILZ Tribute provides a durable, highly scrubbable finish that resists staining, fading and peeling, ideal for DIY painting in bathrooms and beyond!

The light and bright bathroom makeover brings in a touch of contemporary flair with new brushed gold hardware and sleek circular mirrors topped with gold, globe-shaped light fixtures. And for the finishing touch, black and white tile flooring perfectly complements the new color scheme without competing – letting the beautiful blue vanity shine as the room’s focal point.
