Brighten your small decor with a fresh coat of spray paint and give it new life! A small wire basket gets a quick makeover with Bright Coat Copper.

  1. Make sure your basket is clean and thoroughly dry.
  2. Over a drop cloth or Kraft paper, shake can vigorously for one minute after the mixing ball begins to rattle and hold can upright 10-16" from surface spraying in a steady back-and-forth motion, slightly overlapping each stroke. Keep the can in motion while spraying. Apply two or more light coats a few minutes apart to avoid drips and runs. 
  3. Allow the basket to dry for 1 hour before use.
  4. A second coat can be applied within 1 hour or after 48 hours.  A clear coat finish is not  recommended.
