wow, I am about to paint the tiles on the floor of my bathroom and decided to check if yis had anything on this. I got to say that this really didn't add anything to my knowledge. but man was it a hilarious video. I mean after watching you for a long time with the way better production value h thand really in depth instructional videos you make now. watching this and was really fun and great to really appreciate how far you've come as a person and a content creator.
ps. it was awesome to hear the origin of "sexy beast", that was the best part. i really hope you rewatc
This comment made my day :) This was the very first BYOT video and every time I watch this video I cringe but so worth keeping it up because its important to see where you started so you know how much you've truly progressed. Today the BYOT TH-cam channel hit 100,000,000 views and it all started with this video. Crazy to think about how far this channel has come since 2016. Thanks so much for the support and so glad you left this comment.
Your floor is a slate (stone) and you should strip off the poly coating that usually is found on Slate.This is stone not asbestos. Because this kind of coating can be easily scratched and slate is soft it will easily scratch regardless of the coating you have applied.
Thank you! I'm going to try this. We have a very old and beat up slate tile floor. So glad to find your video and subscribe to your channel.
I love it ....nice job...hope you did the white border!
Hi Brent. Keep it up you are entertaining and hip! I will be painting bathroom tile walls and perhaps floors of a small vacation home I am buying soon. Thank you for the tips...Best of Luck!
Thanks Lily! Glad this video helped. I'll keep it you :)
Damn the floor look better before than after
Can you give us an update on how well it wears? I’m looking to paint a Saltillo tile floor and your video was helpful, but I’m curious if the paint holds up well in traffic areas.
Luckily for you I though ahead. Here is an update a year later. Thanks for watching and hope you subscribed :) th-cam.com/video/4lxZsGImMDo/w-d-xo.html
I got the same ugly ass tile. Thanks for sharing definitely going to be doing this to my kitchen & laundry room. Still have to figure out what color to do it.
Great video 👌🏾, will try this on my old bathroom floor
Great to hear. Thanks for watching.
BYOT flat earth
Hello , we want to see something for backyard we have pavers in that but we don't like the result of papers and colour of it . Please guide how to make it look more eye catching and finished look. Thanks 😊
Your commentary is absolutely hilarious! You did great for your 1st vid and great tips!
I want to use your technique for my kitchen floor tile. Should I use a sealer afterwards?
When you called the title" ugly ass tile" I said yep this is my guy .Great job buddy.
Did you ever do the white border on the grout lines?
Much better before painting
Do you dig ditches with a spoon too? Jabroni!
I haven't heard "Jabroni" in a while. We need to bring that one back haha. Thanks for watching.
I think it would look good with the grout lines painted in a different shade
Yep, that or do the first coat in a darker color, and sponge a lighter color on for the second coat to give the tiles a more textured look.
This is very helpful, thank you. Sorry, I didn't notice the butt crack.
😆😆😆
Came for the demo...stayed for the crack
Great video! We would like to paint our kitchen tiles. How durable is painting tiles, will it mark and scratch?
Thanks Donald. The paint I used is very durable and I haven't noticed any scratching and this was applied by my front door so there is heavy traffic. It does get dirty though which you can clean with some light scrubbing. No harsh chemicals though because that could take the paint off.
Wow this was your first video omg your a boss
Haha! Yep you have to start somewhere right . Check out one of my more recent videos and let me know what you think of the video quality difference. I personally feel I’ve grown a lot over the last few years. Thanks for the support.
@@BYOTools nice! I will I'm live on TH-cam Daily we should do a collab Podcast talk tools one episode!
Looks good but there could be added steps but This is just my opinion/s so bare with me.
1. Add lighter grey to highlight the tiles so you get a two tone effect with just the tiles.
2. Covering the grout with tape or painting the grout a diff color maybe
Great suggestions and yes I thought of those but wanted to make like a little easier on myself haha. Thanks so much for watching and hope you subscribed.
Why do people keep using the dead gray color? I’ve seen so many in no other color but gray and white.
Nice job buddy.
Probably because that is the main color they sell at Home Depot haha! Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed the video Sally. This was my very FIRST video on TH-cam so you should check out some of my newer videos if you can and let me know what you think of the improvement.
Nope, so many objects are going to easily scratch the paint job -- I don't especially like my older foyer tiles, so I added a shine solution and then I added area rugs.
Ya this finish doesn’t last forever but a quick fix to a floor that needs a clean look that isn’t expensive to do. Thanks for watching.
Wow Brent! I just watched this. Your channel was SO different now. I wonder how this floor is looking 5 years later?
So.....you vacuumed the floor with the hose disconnected. You know that isn’t how that works, yeah? Hehe
Billy!!! 300k people have watching this including myself and NO ONE ever caught that bahaha! You are very observant apparently. Thanks for watching :)
I guess it's okay if you don't mind your entry way looking like a garage floor. I'd love to see something that alters the color but still looks like natural stone.. just a different color palette?
Good suggestion. I might have to look for one of those products in the future but I don't think anything was going to help this stone look like a show stopper haha. Thanks for watching Christine.
It looks great,doesn’t look like a garage floor. Looks just like tile with the same color of grout , GREAT JOB!!!
so I was going to change my entire first floor tile with cement and possible a light terra-cotta look. it appears extremely easy. the difference is i will probably do a tile at a time. or 6. leaving the grout. natural and clean.
will update you.
gosh - i must prefer the original finish ;-)
Haha. Thanks for watching.
I’m glad you mentioned wearing a respirator. Mesothelioma diagnosis took my father (a strong man!) in 8 months after diagnosis. Better to be safe than sorry! Thank you for sharing. Nice video & results... curious how it held up?
Sorry to hear about your loss Sarah and YES I always promote wearing a good mask. Gotta protect your lungs. Thanks so much for watching and here is a recap video a year later after I originally painted the floor so you can see the nature wear and tear. Hope you subscribed :) th-cam.com/video/4lxZsGImMDo/w-d-xo.html
Umm, “Let’s get crackin!” Lol. There sure was a lot of crack in this video!
LOL!!!! I was thinking the same thing :0
MB Reed Glad you have a sense of humor 😂
“Fast forward motion”? I just thought you were speedy.
How did it hold up?
I think the original was natural slate and very desirable. I'm sad you didn't just leave it the slate.
Sorry your sad to see it go but it had to haha. Thanks for watching.
Yeah, old floor was way cooler and more expensive looking. This redo looks super cheap. Sorry to say. Glad that Citristrip exists. yikes.
good project but floor not looking too good. didn't work out well.
Thanks for watching Joan. We'll its not amazing but its WAY better then what was there originally haha.
Thanks for the video! I followed your lead EXACTLY! Except i used black paint. - We have a woman's bathroom in our office, i was quoted $600+ to do this job!!! So I took a Sunday and did it myself with your guidance, it looks great!! Thanks again!
YorkEastEnd you made my day! That's great to hear. Glad that this video helped. Thanks for watching.
Did you use a sealant for the tile? I have my living room painted and it is constantly getting scratched and the paint has lifted (let’s just say wear and tear happens daily). I hired a handy man to do the job so I’m not sure if it’s the quality of the paint but it honestly seems like it needed a sealant that never happened.
Its been almost two years. Has it lasted/chipped? Did you apply a finish on top of the paint?
Yes..???? What's up dude..3 years later.. hows it lasted??
@@wrokgoddess i have the same question
I would like to know too! How did the paint hold up??
Thanks for this. I searched for a similar tutorial to no avail not too long ago. Major money saver!
No problem. Great to hear this video helped
Thank you so much I learned alot I wish you all the best on your endeavors
Thanks so much Hash and greatly appreciate the support. Hope you subscribed.
Looks great I hope it doesn’t peel
Would like to see you do a video painting tile with Beyond Paint a NEW ALL IN ONE primer , sealer, on all surfaces
7 yrs ago. How does it look
I would have just painted the purplish tiles with 3 tones of gray per tile to make those look individual slates look like gray stone. Left the grout lines and the rest of the slate but I am an artist-constructionist. The new surface is too blah.
An excellent slate floor that needed some TLC and you painted it!
Now just looks cheap.
Can I paint black slate in front of my fireplace? I used my steamer on it and now it's discolored in one spot. Thank you.
so difficult to listen to him since he does not recognize a vintage natural SLATE floor when he sees it.
Great Video 👏👍👏 I was just researching how to paint my kitchen tile and came across your video.
is that slate tile? It looks so smooth. The slate floor I want to paint is filled with nooks, dimples~Will the sanding step even that out?
That isn’t tile. It’s slate. Quarried stone which is why no two are the same. Therefore no asbestos.
Great video - especially for your first one! I have almost the same ugly tile and have been looking for ways to paint that are easy and (hopefully) durable. And your follow up video (BYOT 21) showed exactly what to expect over time. Thanks!
Great to hear Roger and thanks so much for watching and for subscribing. Greatly appreciate the support.
U have painter’s crack😳
Don't tell anyone.... haha. I fixed that in later videos lol! Thanks for watching Karen.
Thanks for the simple video. I wonder about chipping paint. After following these steps you've laid out, is it necessary to add a water/acrylic-based polyurethane atop the top coat of paint? I am preparing to paint a floor in a few days. Thank You!
If you buff the floor, can the paint be removed and returned to relatively to what the tile looked like originally? Or once it's done there's no going back? We have hideous flooring in our townhouse, and we are allowed to do anything as long as if the owner doesn't like upon moving out she can have it returned to how it was prior...
Once the paint is on its ON for good. I would say ask the owner of you can paint it and see what they say. If the tile is that ugly them the paint is for sure an improvement and less work for the owner since they don't have to rip it out.
Thanks! I actually watched your follow up (episode 21) first, saw it held up well for a year, and came to check this out. This is super useful. Thank you especially for including the dry time. I plan to paint my bathroom floor, and well, there's only one bathroom in my home so knowing dry time is especially important!
How did it keep long term? Any wear out in high traffic area?
any update on how this is holding up? peeling, chipping, etc?
Hi Christine. The floor may be a little dirty but no peeling or chipping what so ever. I might do an update soon for everyone. Thanks for watching.
Go to his page ..he ended up doing the white border a year later and the grey looks good still
Thanks for mentioning that and thanks for watching.
I really wanted to watch this video but his foul mouth turned me off. No BYOT videos for me!!!
If it make you feel any better all of my newer videos are much more professional and I don't have such a foul mouth ;) check one out and let me know what you think.
I have the exact tile in front of my fireplace. Would you still recommend a indoor outdoor paint?
I think that would still work out well. As long as its not the paint that is IN your fireplace you should be ok. Thanks so much for watching Kellie and hope you enjoyed my very FIRST TH-cam video I ever did :)
Enjoyed everything about this video including comments. Looking forward to more. Liked and subscribed.
Thanks for the support. I greatly appreciate it.
You have given me hope. Our house has three different tile styles and colors: a)terra cotta pinks and rusts set in harlequin pattern, b)modern ceramic white, and c)ceramic, grey, that looks like wood slats. Makes me cringe. Can't afford to tear it out and start over and hate wall to wall carpet. If I can paint everything grey to 'match' the wood looking tiles, maybe I can live with it. Thanks for the idea. There are some horrible houses out here!
Why no sealant to make it durable for the traffic?
How long did the paint last .. were they porous tiles
I am thinking of doing this over my full bathroom floor tiles, I would like a sealer over it though. Would you recommend that and if so what sealer would work best with that? Thanks
Hi Laura. The paint I used was for exterior patio use so if it can handle that then it should be able to handle an interior bathroom without needing a sealer. Try it out without a sealer and if you do need a sealer after a while then you can paint the floor again with another coat and then apply a sealer.
Any coating over a ceramic or porcelain will not last and look ghetto, The bond is just not a good one, easily scratched and will peel off. Tile is so affordable now days. just jack it out and install what you really want. There's so much variety as well from porcelain wood look planks to any texture and color you could dream up.
Please do not paint over slate floors. Slate floors at entrances were THE thing in the '50's, 60's and '70;'s. Why would you take that vintage bit out of the house by turning a slate foyer into a mechanics garage floor that screams "rip me up and start over"? It is horrifying. You CLEAN slate and refinish it - high gloss or natural. You don't paint it! Spare me. What's next? Chalk painting the marble mantels?
Im sure the where THE THING back in the day but in my opinion there's nothing that will save these tiles haha. I'll rip them out eventually and make sure to contact you and confirm what your address is so I can send these beautiful tiles your way haha! JK but thank you for watching.
@@BYOTools Slate is fragile, the tiles will not come up in one piece. Seriously, painting a slate floor is a design faux pas. Perhaps you just didn't know what you had and why it should have been preserved. Live and learn.
Hello. Yes , definitely looks better in gray . It looks more modern.
I would like your advice in a problem I have . My house is 27 years old it has aged very well and still looks modern . Everything looks good except for the terrace floor it’s terracota and I hate it .
And it doesn’t go with the style of you my house .
I cannot change the floor right now it is a huge terrace .
What would you do ? Can I paint the terracota floor?
Thank you
It is very, very ugly, it looked way better before, seriously, it's terrible to put this in someone's living space. It's ok for utility rooms or garage floors, but previous floor was 10 times better and you could improve it just buy deep cleaning and maybe refreshing grout!
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. For me there was now way to salvage that tile other then ripping it out or just paining over it. I'll let you know when I rip it out and feel free to come brag it haha. Thanks for watching.
@@BYOTools Pls don't get offended, but I couldn't get over it. I would personally rather invest in new tiles, you can find them on sale and at the end it would be cheaper and less effort than trying to salvage these tiles. They will never look good painted, just admit, don't do any more work on them, you already invested so much time and effort and money... think twice next time, just saying, you guys should ask your ladies for suggestion sometimes... All the best!
It was much better before . You painted it gray and covered the grout lines ? lol
Don't know who would like the before more then the after but to each his own Michal. Thanks for watching though.
Loved the concise simple style...
Great to hear Michelle. Thanks for watching!
Could you put a high gloss paint on this? I’d like mine to be glossy
Bun Paca you can put a clear glossy protective coat on top of it
Vintage period tiles are so beautiful. the quality and craftsman ship was affordable back in that era, they are worth more the amount to salvage them.
Hey mate great vid, wanting to do the same with horrible terra-cotta coloured tiles (whole house) just wondering how it held up? Has it chipped/peeled with the method you used? An updated photo would be awesome! Cheers
It held up very well. I just filmed the tile again so people can see how it has held up. Stay tuned because that video should be out in the net week. Thanks for watching Tim.
Just repainted a tile floor in the entryway and the bathroom because it had chipped from about 6 months ago and this time we applied a sealer. Some spots look great and some spots look like they have a white film now. I’m thinking the sealer was to heavy in those spots. Any ideas on how to fix it? and if a photo would help show you what it looks like let me know.
Is it still holding on the floor?
Great idea, we have an old bathroom in the house that needs a quick facelift. Question? in addition to the floor, how would it hold up on ceramic tile in the bathtub/shower stall? is it waterproof and how do you keep it clean? thanks
It looks bad! Restoring and sealing the floor would have been much better or taping off grout lines and sealing as a whole after painting
That isn't tile, it's stone, slate actually. Have you tried cleaning it? It looked crazy dirty. To each his own.
I’m wondering about painting the accents tile in my stand up shower. I want to get ride of the beige and change it to a shimmery silver blue to make it look like a waterfall. Don’t really want to replace the whole thing. Thought on how I could do this??
WOuld this work for a porous tile like terracotta? WOuld love to have them a dark grey/black colour. Thanks
How did the paint wear after 6 months?
Thanks for your great info that I can follow your step so easy.
was thinking about doing the exact same thing using outdoor paint because I have nasty old coffee colored tiles from the 60s. I want a white floor. painting the gaps or edge there would make your project complete. looks good. subbed.
Thanks for watching and the support Marisol.
for a project like this, if I still want to see the grout lines after I paint over my tiles do I chip off the existing grout and re-grout the whole thing? thanks for making this video, I find this and a few others that I watched very helpful and informative!
You could do that or you could paint everything and then go back and paint just the grout lines. I would suggest re-grouting though.
some parts, when he's looking straight at the camera, sound like a sloppy imitation of Owen Wilson's voice....just saying. Great video tho!
I like the work but I won't follow because I do not like the language he uses. For such a simple show way does he speak like that?
Buddy please suggest me .. i want to paint my wall tiles .. its very dark brown .. i want a light colour like white or cream
This is one of the best first videos I've ever seen, great job. I also think this tile painting is a great job, I appreciate you showed step by step and explained why. Is there a similar method for concrete? I'm pretty sure it's concrete under the wall-to-wall carpet I want to pull out of my house. Many thanks!
Great to hear and yes you can definitely apply a coating to a concrete subfloor but you need to make sure to get a moisture reader and check to make sure you don't have too much moisture in the slab. I also would use a paint that is more durable. Maybe a two part epoxy mixture that you can add coloring to. I might have to do a video on that one coming up :) Thanks for watching.
@@BYOTools Many thanks for your reply. It's hard to imagine there's much moisture left in my slab foundation house built in 1960 in the desert Southwest U.S. 😄 but that sounds like a wise thing to do. I'd hate to do all that work to have it peel off or discolor. I've seen some beautiful outdoor colored and artistic concrete work on patios, but I don't know if it was done when the concrete was poured, or if it was done later.
I look forward to more videos from you. Cheers!
I'm thinking of doing the same but painting my tile black. I want to do an all black theme
I like that idea. Flat Black? Thanks for watching.
BYOT yup!
thats what i want to do in my kitchen, let me know how it goes and what paint you used if you love it !
Love that your personality peaks through! Liked and subscribed!
Thanks for watching Vanessa and the support.
And your butt peeks through your pants!
I need to paint my countertop that are slate. What kind of primer and paint do I use?
I wonder how the paint is holding up
Hi! How it looks five years later?
hi .. walikng on the painted floor with shoes.... every day every time... does the paint fades out?
Can you make a video of painting the grout?
Could see that in an upcoming video. Thanks for the suggestion LBT
I would have like to see a white wash over it, just to create more visiual interest, but the paint job came out great.
Thanks for this! Do you think this would work on the god awful terra-cotta tiles in my screened in porch?
Thanks for watching April. I would say yes as long as you do the proper prep to the tile first.
I continue to be amazed on how many people use a BRUSH for the entire job...instead of a ROLLER (with a brush to cut). Not only will you get the job completed quicker...but it will give you a better final finish!!
Good suggestion D and I use plenty of rollers but the paint brush actually worked much better on this tile then a roller. Don’t really know why and I don’t paint tile very often but that was the case on this project. Also, not going to save much time on a project of this size with a roller but I get your point. Thanks for watching and hope you enjoyed most of the video.
Great job. Good info. Especially for the first of many. Little sense of humor works.
Thanks J. Much appreciated.
Love this guy lol
If you loved my very first video you now have to watch a more recent one. I just removed these tiles and installed a concrete overlay. Check it out if you can and thanks so much for your support :)
@@BYOTools I most certainly will!
what about if the tile is already NON gloss -ROUGH surface?i have tiles where iam renting that are in terrible condition,teh surface is not smooth,full of small little holes,plus it always spits off dust..when i mop...its so rough that even my mop sort of get worn out!
do i still sand down?can you not use the roller to paint the paint on?rather than brush? how do u clean it?by the video was gr8!
Thanks for the comment. Glad you liked the video. I would say that even if the tile is rough you still want to sand it slightly since you still want to get some of the grim and dirt off of the tile if it's old. No you don't have to worry about using a roller. A brush is just fine if you use the same paint I did because is self leveling. Also if you paint the tile those small hole should fill up with paint. Just might take a little longer to dry. Hope this helps :)
Ive been looking for someone who is encouraging about painting tile. Everyone else says "no way", but you have given me some hope that this could work. Definitely worth a try. Thanks!
Great to hear Ellen. Give it a try. I'm glad I did. Good luck! Thanks for watching.
Really appreciate the how-to tips-the swearing, not so much. Not very classy.
Thanks for watching Kristina. As for the swearing Ithis was my very first video on TH-cam so I have definitely become more family friendly and professional. Take a look at one of my newer videos and let me know what you think. Thanks for the support.
Thanks for the reply, and good job on trying to clean things up. All the best to you. 👍🏻
Loved the video, but I did notice after sanding you ONLY vacuumed the tiles. If ANY dust particles are left over from sanding, it could actually cause the paint to chip off in the future. After sanding and vacuuming I would HIGHLY recommend wiping the tiles down with a slightly damp rag, in order to pick up the rest of the dust particles. I hope this helps others who plan on doing this as well. I wasn't sure what paint to use for my diy project, but you totally helped me out. Thank you!
Thanks for a very helpful note. That is a very good point that I didn't think about when I originally did this project. Completely agree. Thanks for watching.
