DIY Painted Door Knobs

- For only $15, I would definitely recommend this DIY painted door knobs project! It really didn’t take that much time or effort but makes such a difference! This is an inexpensive way to upgrade old silver and gold door knobs! It will save you about $150, compared to replacing them. And to replace them, you still have to put in almost the same amount of effort, so I say, why not try to paint them and save some cash?!

The strike plates are not worth painting because they will definitely chip! Luckily, they are only $1 to replace! www.lowes.com/...

I know it’s been forever but could you pleaseee show how they have held up??
Well done. I think you should wear gloves, goggles and a mask when working with these sprays.
She’s outside she’s fine 👍🏻
@@Icemanpdx light breeze can blow that stuff right into your eyes. Also gloves.
And not have a child close by...
If I may provide you a piece of advice when painting (any type of painting you do) cover the pieces, parts or items, especially if you’re leaving them exposed to the elements outside. Covering them will prevent dust and other minute particles and debris from adhering to your freshly painted parts, that wind can blow on to them, which can ruin your hard work and paint job. Great job on the prep-work. As with any painting job, prep work is what gives your paint longevity and a much better finish IMO. Great job! Looks awesome.
It’s been 2 years since you sprayed them are they holding up well? Thanks!
Nice. I do have a question on how well the finish held up. I've seen gold or bronze light fixtures refinished with Rust-Oleum 249131 11 oz Spray Paint, Oil Rubbed Bronze Metallic and they look awesome however door knobs are something you're constantly touching.
Where was your mask and especially if you have sensitivity. Good job though, but please protect yourself with a mask.
Hey guys, they held up pretty bad and it wrecked my marriage. It really started a chain reaction of just terrible things. 1 star.
Soooooooooo....4 months later, how is your most frequently used one holding up?
Does the paint "fill up" the key area?
I did mine and used the same brand self etching primer and black paint. I even used the same brand clear coat. I did 3 coats primer, 3 coats paint, and 3 coats clear coat. After letting it cure for a few days, the key hole area still get chipped and scratched by keys.
It's funny how so many people want to know what I'd like to know: how did it hold up? I saw a video on rub'n buff that might be worth a look see.
From a chemical perspective self etching primer is for brand new bare metal, not for coated or painted or sanded metal. You’d be better with a high bonding primer
Thanks for this comment. I'm always looking for the science behind the choices that others make about their DIY applications. The more we know, the more we grow 🌻.
Helpful, thanks!
How have they held up so far? Any flaking or chipping?
Love this. Sounds so helpful and I'm ready to get started. Thank you so much for the cleaning tips.
very impressive instructions.
How have they held up?? They look beautiful!!
Hi! great video, i plan to do the exact same thing - i just discovered that etching primer! How did they hold up 1+ year later?
Thank you for this helpful video giving me much needed encouragement and inspiration. P.s. I hope you disregarded the few Karen-sounding “concerns” over your safety; you were doing just fine imho!
how well did those hold up?
How did they hold up? Any scratches now?
I’m so glad I found you. I have 19 doors counting closets that 38 knobs that need painting. You are saving me lots of money from buying all new knobs. Are your knobs still looking good as it has been about a month since you did it?
You don’t need to cross your legs in the video. Information is very good though.
@UCsaXFzJ5HpU1TPtDwhBqh7g Wow! Did you really write that? Your an idiot
Kendall thank you for the video and info. I think it's an awesome alternative to buying all new hardware. I'm going to add a clear coat after I follow your process. Probably not necessary but I'll be sure to tell you how that works out. Thanks again Kendall!
How did it work out? What type of clear did you use?
Hi did you do a clear coat?
Good morning! What about if my knobs have key hole? Does the paint interfere with anything? Thanks
Mabe get a copy of your key made and place it it the hole , then spray??
Any stickyness on the door knobs when you touch them.? I tried this but the knob is sticky but also I didn't go through all the steps you did.
No need to seal at the end?
What do they look like now? lol
How are they holding up?
Hi Kendall, I see you don't post videos too often, but it would be nice if you would respond to the many comments here about how well the paint held up on your door knobs. My experience is that even with sanding the paint does not hold up, especially outdoor facing knobs. Anyway, as relatively easy as this initial procedure was, if it doesn't hold up it really is not worth the bother. Make sense?

Do you need to pee?
You look and sound just like Ashley Tisdale!! Great video!
I see kids running near by is big No No, the paint is very poisoning and could cause cancel. Hope you wear mask and leave the kids inside house. Good job!

No mask?!
Oh my word, I was sooo nervous watching this at first. When she was outside, it looked like she was trying so hard not to pee!! Her crossing and squeezing her legs together was making me feel for her😮🥴🥴
Hello! I am thinking of doing the same thing, but with my passage door lever that is for my apartment's front door. I was wondering how well your paint has stood without chipping since you didn't use a top coat (I realise it's only been maybe 2 months). Would you recommend a top coat if you had to do it over again?
even with a top coat, the keyhole still gets scratched and chipped.
So you never mentioned if you used two different kinds of paint ..first one self etching primer what about the second coat is it the same paint ???
Hi there! I’m so sorry that I wasn’t clear! I did 2 coats of the self etching and then 2 coats of oil rubbed bronze spray paint. They are all linked in the description. Thanks for watching!!
I did this with a door know once before but the there was always the slightest feeling of tackiness on the handle. I felt like it never ever dried if that's possible. Anybody else?
It's been a year, how did the final product hold up under use? Did the paint come off or is ir showing signs of wear, etc?
Would love to know also!
It won`t hold, I tried it before
Just tested this out … used a bucket because I don’t have a backyard … I have paint with primer
I just found you. You’re keeping me in such a good mood this morning! I’m so glad I found this video of painting door knobs/handles; I’ve been wanting to paint my kitchen cabinet hardware for a year but have been so intimidated. Not after seeing how you did yours! Thank you for your clear, easy and fun to watch videos showing how you do everything! So easy to follow. Really grateful too for your fun fun fun energy too! 😄
Can you name the 2 products you used. Thx
Thank you! Appreciate your tips!
The paint comes off Just in a few months
Anyone know how to clean the door knob residue off of the door itself without damaging the paint? I tried looking it up, but only got results for cleaning door knobs....
Mr clean eraser
I was also going to suggest a Mr clean eraser. If that doesn’t work, I’d probably just paint over it.
I have been contemplating this one for a while, glad to know it's not too labor intensive. Thanks for sharing!
So awesome, I was ready to buy new ones, but this is much better and will save a lot!
Did you paint the hinges as well?
Kool vid girl. Great video. Perfectly done.
Does it chip ?
Thank everyone I
Great job!
Looks great.
Whats the difference between the self etching primer and the paint? I ask because the primer appears to paint it black.
