Thank you for the dedication and step by step instructions. The detailed list of materials is extremely helpful. You have inspired me and given me courage to tackle the updating in two bathrooms. You are the only person in the Web to do what you are doing in your tutorials and in your site. Thanks again!!! Patty, from FL
you get a gold star. this is the best hands down explanation of how to paint over a tile shower. i have painted all kinds of things for over 65 years but never a tile shower. now i am ready , thanks to your expert guidance.
Wow, thank you! That is SO nice of you to say. I put a lot of work into my videos and tutorials, so anyone can follow along and get the same results I do 😁
Thank you so much for this video. I’m researching and stumbled onto your video. Best one yet. Now I feel a tad more confident tackling our ugly downstairs bathroom.
Thank you , very nice video about bathroom painting .. Can u help me can we use sherwin William extra white paint for painting bathroom tiles.. I already did primer one coat , but want to check which paint fir bathroom
Thank you so much, I started to paint one of my bathrooms today per your method. Could you please advice, does this approach works for bathtub as well or only for tiles? Thank you so much.
😁 I'm so glad! This shower painting process is only for the tile and not the tub. You'll need to use an epoxy Tub & Tile kit for that. Here's one that will work: amzn.to/3VaBoGC it comes in satin and gloss, so decide if you want a shiny finish or not. Good luck with the project. It makes such a big difference. I love mine every day.
Appreciate your video-your footage is very clear and your oratory is top notch. A question: In your opinion, would the bonding primer you recommend work on a standard shower pan-acrylic, fiberglass, etc.-that is, on a surface other than tile? Also, what if a shower pan/tub has previously been resurfaced with an epoxy/paint product? Would the Valspar bonding primer work in that case as well? Thank you for advising, if able. 🙂
Thank you! Sorry, with how flexible fiberglass is I wouldn't recommend anything other than a product designed for a standard shower pan. Here's a product that would be a better option and you would need to sand off anything previously applied: Fiberglass Repair amzn.to/454wkrx
I would like to do this in my bathroom, but I’d like to remove the glass door while painting and then put it back up when done. Is it ok to caulk around the edge of the glass enclosure after painting the tile? Anything special I need to do after applying the caulk?
Hi, Erin! Just be aware that when you remove the glass door likely silicone caulk will be left on the tile. Do you plan to scrape it off before painting? That's what I'd recommend. Yes, once the door is back in place you would need to caulk around it to seal out water. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for dry time, before exposing the caulk to water.
Is that travertine tile? It looks like mine except mine are butted together w out grout. I personally would never paint that. I would paint those cheap 4x4 tiles
Thanks for the question. No, it's basic cheap builder grade beige tile that I chose 14 years ago believe it or not! So for me, painting fit the budget and I still LOVE it 2 years later. This is the bathroom I use off my office everyday and it makes me smile .
Thank you! This is in the written tutorial I linked in the description if you ever need it again 😁 Tile Cleaning Solution - 1 Cup Dawn Dish Detergent (please use this brand it’s the best degreaser) -1 Cup Distilled White Vinegar Mix together in a spray bottle

Stix Primer is fantastic too.
I've heard good things, but have used Valspar Bonding Primer because I worked there for years 😁 It's NEVER failed me.

Great! My mission is to be helpful. I try to provide as much detail as I can to make sure you get the best results possible 😁
Just got back from the hardware store with all the things 🎉 now I’m ready for this next project.

You are so welcome!
Thank you! What about if you have a tiled seat in the shower? Would you paint the seat area when you do the floor or the walls?
GREAT question! If you don't have to "walk on it" paint it. Anything you have to stand on leave until the end. Hope that helps 😀
