Clean and scrape anything loose off first and then spray away! Good luck!

I'm into the shabby chic style, tho, and something that looks shiny and new just doesn't really appeal to me. If you do decide to paint it, go with several thin sprayed on coats.

I always use rustoleum or krylon spray. It always works well!

Because of their protective coating I am wondering whether or not they can be painted, and with what type of paint? Thank you in advance for your input! Jan from Louisville, KY Answers: RE: Painting Wicker Furniture I have just used the new spray paint for plastic (I tried Rustoleum brand) and I am very pleased with the results. http://www.rustoleum.com/product.asp?frm_product_id=391&SBL=1 also available in hammered metallics & textured finishes...very cool, and it's durable enough for outdoor use. (04/24/2007) By maryjane72 RE: Painting Wicker Furniture I'd recommend KRYLON FUSION spray paint for plastic. It can be used on "plastics, PVC, hard vinyl, ceramic, glass, tile, wood, metal, and wicker", according to what it says on the can. I've used it on wood, plastic and ceramic tile, and I am pleased with the results. (04/25/2007) By tismom RE: Painting Wicker Furniture I recommend Krylon Fusion as well. Last Summer my husband spray painted our resin patio set and a smaller table from white to a pretty sand color. It cost us $25 in paint to have what looks like new patio furniture!
