Find In Store

  1. Find a few mismatched items that would work well together for your home office space.
  2. If you're spray painting, you'll want to find a spot outside and cover nearby items with a drop cloth. If you're brushing on the paint, you can work indoors. (You'll still want to use a drop cloth.)
  3. Remove the glass from the frames and the knobs from the desk drawers and set aside.
  4. Lightly sand everything to rough up the surface and wipe clean with a tack cloth.
  5. If the wood is new, you'll want to start with the Rust-Oleum® Painter's® Touch Ultra Cover 2X Primer Spray. Follow the application directions on the can and let dry completely.
  6. Spray on the Rust-Oleum® Painter's® Touch Ultra Cover 2X Semi-Gloss Spray in Semi-Gloss Black onto your items following the application directions on the can to ensure a perfect finish. Allow to dry completely.
  7. While your paint is drying, take the drawer knobs and spray with Rust-Oleum® Universal® Hammered Spray in Dark Bronze Hammered. Allow the knobs to dry.
  8. Re-attach the knobs to the drawers and replace the glass in your frames. You know the perfect spot for your sophisticated new office furniture.
