Replacing a bathroom vanity can quickly become an expensive project.
If the vanity itself is still in good shape, why replace it?
A fresh coat of paint can completely change the look of your bathroom—and Beyond Paint makes the process simple.
For this project, we're using Bright White, a clean, crisp white that instantly freshens up an outdated vanity. What You'll Need
• Beyond Paint in Bright White
• General-purpose degreaser, such as Simple Green or Zep Degreaser
• Clean cloths
• 3/8-inch microfiber or woven roller
• Paint tray
• Small brush for corners and detailed areas
• Painter's tape, if desired
Step 1: Remove the Hardware
Remove knobs, pulls and other hardware from the vanity.
If you're painting around a countertop or other fixed surfaces, use painter's tape to protect areas you don't want painted.
Step 2: Clean the Vanity
Bathrooms collect moisture, dust, hair products and everyday grime, so thoroughly clean the vanity before painting.
Use a general-purpose degreaser and make sure the surface is completely clean and dry. The surface should be free of grease, oil and wax before application.
Step 3: Skip the Traditional Prep
Once the vanity is clean and dry, you're ready to paint.
There's no need to strip the existing finish, sand the vanity or apply a separate primer.
Beyond Paint is an all-in-one bonder, primer and sealer.
Step 4: Apply the First Coat
Apply Bright White using a 3/8-inch microfiber or woven roller for the best results. Use a small brush where necessary to reach corners or detailed areas.
Beyond Paint can also be applied using an airless or HVLP sprayer.
Step 5: Wait at Least Two Hours
Allow the first coat to dry for at least two hours before applying your second coat.
Step 6: Apply the Second Coat
Apply your second coat for full, even coverage.
The result is a smooth and uniform finish that can give an older vanity an entirely new appearance.
Step 7: Reinstall the Hardware
Once the vanity is ready to handle, put the hardware back on and return your bathroom essentials. That's it.
No replacement vanity. No complicated renovation.
Just a fresh new look.
