Supply List to Update Hardware with Gold Paint

Original Modern Dresser Knobs

These knobs are brought in by a customer for a quick update. She had bought new bedroom furniture for her daughter but wanted the knobs gold rather than this dark pewter color. painting hardware, pewter hardware, paint hardware with gold paint,

Choosing Metallic Gold Paint

We discussed gold metallic paint and decided to go with a gorgeous gold in classic gold. I suppose we could have tried a gold spray paint like this one (HERE) but since I have already used this metallic paint I had a feeling that she would love this one. liquid leaf, liquid gold leaf, gold paint, metallic gold, classic gold paint


Painting Hardware with Gold Metallic Paint

Since these knobs are brand new they don’t need very much prep. You can simply wipe them with a lint-free cloth to remove any dust or finger oils. Next, flip all of the knobs over on to their heads. how to paint hardware gold, flip over hardware knobs, gold paint

This will allow you to paint your liquid gold paint on the underside of the knobs first. You can use any quality paint brush. I really like using small Taklon artist brushes (HERE) for this because the paint goes on so easily and smoothly.  gold paint, liquid leaf, metallic gold paint, paint hardware gold, liquid gold leaf paint

Once the gold metallic paint is dry you can flip the knobs over and stand them up. how to paint hardware gold, painting hardware gold, paint hardware with gold paint

Now go ahead and paint the tops of your knobs.  painting hardware gold, gold paint for hardware, gold paint for metal

Painting one side of the knobs and then flipping them over makes it a bit easier to paint the hardware without having to handle them too much.

      I don’t see why not. As long as you properly prep there should be no problem
