WIN: a £50 Ikea gift voucher with PlastiKote spray paint

7th January 20207th January 2020 SPIadmin

Start the year as you mean to go on – recycle, revamp and reuse! PlastiKote spray paint is the perfect paint to makeover unloved furniture and accessories quickly and easily. In this month’s blog, you’ll find step by step instructions on how to recycle tables, chairs and a chest of drawers but the possibilities are endless.

We had a plain wooden step stool that is now on its third incarnation! From bare wood, we masked off the bottom two thirds and sprayed the top White Satin from our Twist & Spray paint range to use as a bedside table in a guest room. A year or so down the line, it was re-purposed as a useful surface in the bathroom adding a pop of colour with Orange Gloss. When the décor changed in the bathroom, the step stool was sprayed with Mediterranean Blue Gloss to be used as, well, steps!

To win a £50 gift voucher to spend in Ikea, enter our competition. Tell us which of our step stool projects you like best – Bathroom, Guest Room or Steps. Email your answer together with your name, address and phone number to competition@spraypaintideas.co.uk and put JAN COMP as the subject. We’ll pick one lucky winner at random after the closing date of 29th February. Good luck!

Any time of year is perfect for getting creative with PlastiKote spray paint but Christmastime especially so. Forget garlands of plastic tinsel and shop-bought decorations – make your own with cones, leaves, twigs and fruit and a spritz of Metallic spray paint.

From place names to wreaths, there’s a whole host of decorations that can be made without breaking the bank. A can of Fast Dry Enamel in Gold Leaf, Chrome, Antique Gold, Rose Gold or Copper can be bought for around £4 and goes a long way. It’s quick and easy too!

Our top three Metallics from the Fast Dry Enamel range are Copper, Chrome and Gold Leaf. Which is your favourite?

Autumn is upon us, with shorter days and cooler weather. Ring the changes by taking a can of PlastiKote spray paint and giving your accessories a refresh or a new colour. Spray a photo frame a bright colour or give an old ornament a metallic makeover. It’s quick and easy to do, and won’t break the bank.

Why stop there? A table or chair sprayed in a strong colour will add a new focal point to your room. Revamp an old piece you already have or take a trip to the local tip – someone else’s trash could be your treasure! A light sanding and clean with soapy water and you’re ready to go. Use Twist & Spray Primer, followed by your favourite Twist & Spray colour.

We did exactly that with these three pieces: A – a small side table sprayed Royal Blue, B – a wicker armchair sprayed Black Plum and C – a junk shop find sprayed in Hacienda Tile, Yellow and Orange Gloss.

Here’s your chance to win a £50 Etsy voucher courtesy of PlastiKote spray paint.

If you’ve never used spray paint and are a bit apprehensive, our advice is to buy one can and try it out on a couple of small projects before tackling something bigger. There are probably a few bits lying around the house or in the attic that you’ve fallen out of love with or are looking a bit tired. One can of PlastiKote Twist & Spray – a great all rounder that works on most surfaces and is easy to use – will do several smaller items. Visit our YouTube channel for how to videos and top tips on using spray paint.

The vase, frame and lamp stand in this picture have been sprayed in Twist & Spray’s Dusty Coral. It took just one can and a few minutes to do each one plus drying time. It’s so quick and easy.

Email your answer A, B or C together with your name, address and phone number to competition@spraypaintideas.co.uk and put MAY COMP as the subject. We’ll pick one lucky winner at random after the closing date of 30th June. Good luck!

As this is written, the sky is blue, the sun is out and the birds are twittering – Spring is on its way! And with Spring comes the thoughts of decluttering and cleaning the home.

Here are three easy projects to illustrate what a couple of coats of PlastiKote spray paint can achieve. Which is your favourite?
