Alternatives to Painting a Refrigerator

RE: Alternatives to Painting a Refrigerator By SusanMarie (4) Contact If you are very patient you can cover them with a "stainless steel' lookalike heavier than contact paper, available in major hardware stores. Your surface has to be absolutely clean and your cuts have to be perfect. It's almost too much work. Have you thought of painting it with the sponge method to give it a granite effect?

The kind that has a waterproof type outer texture. It would be a lot easier to remove than contact paper if you changed your mind and lots and lots of different design (or non-design) choices ;-) Also, the hanging can be made really easy by removing handles and/or the door instead of trying to hang the paper around the hardware ;-) Posted on 07/27/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Alternatives to Painting a Refrigerator By redhatterb (220) Profile Contact You can also find a contact like paper that is supposed to make your appliances look like stainless. I have seen it in some of the "junk" catalogs that I get in the mail. I have also seen it used on some of the decorating shows on TV.

Contact How about finding contact paper in a pretty design and putting it on your fridge. Posted on 07/23/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Alternatives to Painting a Refrigerator By Davidicdancer (21) Profile Contact To spruce up my fridge, I cut out pictures from magazines that I liked and stuck them to magnets (the kind that are sold in strips with a sticky back). It's changeable and not as solid as a paint-change, but it's something different. Hope it helps! Posted on 07/23/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse
