DIY Vent Hood - Desert Rose Gold vs Metallic Copper - Make Over

[@gregt722]

My OCD is off the charts watching her spray paint! It defies everything logical. Aaaaarrrgggghhhh! The colour is beautiful and it makes a huge splash in your kitchen!

[@vintagelyzzie]

Hahahahahaha yes the spraying was problematic. Normally I do better but the paint wasn't coming out the normal way. Normally, I just two two light coats of spray paint.

You did a beautiful job! Thanks for showing us how it's done! Love the backsplash, too. New subscriber here and will now watch your backsplash video.

[@vintagelyzzie]

Thanks! I have more I just need to edit and upload which seems to take forever!!

[@TBetti]

It's gorgeous!! Great idea :)

[@vintagelyzzie]

Glad you like it!

[@donnawhipple556]

Thank you! I wanted to see what the desert rose gold looked like in real life, I'm considering painting the hardware to my new (to me!) secretary desk that color. I'll be painting the whole desk in rustoleum winter gray, and I think the pop of pink will look good with it.

[@vintagelyzzie]

Have fun! A pop of color like pale pink would be great.

Nice job!

[@vintagelyzzie]

Thanks!

Love it I got a copper roof outside but I'll bring in the color. But I'll do the underside too!

[@vintagelyzzie]

Go for it! I painted the underside white to reflect more light in a dark kitchen. But copper underneath would give the illusion of being real copper.

[@cyncidiakirkland3337]

Thanks for the review, I will definitely consider!

[@vintagelyzzie]

Glad it was helpful!

Will this work on “stainless steal” appliances? I want to paint them copper to match my vintage copper kitchen decor.

[@vintagelyzzie]

Hmmm, I'm not sure. They do make something called "appliance paint" in a spray can you might want to use that as a primer first. Usually, that is white. Then certainly the copper paint with adhere to the primer.

[@whatsupdoc84]

@@vintagelyzzie thanks!!!!! 🥰

[@janisrice6372]

Sure improved it!

[@vintagelyzzie]

Thanks!

Oh thank you flr this video! I followed the link to the final paint you chose, but the pictures didnt load? What is the exact name of the spray uou used and is it possible to have a picture of can? I am visually impaired and couldn't read the words coming across the scresn. Thank you so much!

[@vintagelyzzie]

The final color was Rustoleum - Bright Coat - Copper it is the most common one you find out there at Walmart etc. White can with normal flat top lid. The first color was the fancier "Desert Rose Gold" Paint & Primer in One also by Rustoleum. That one has an oddly shaped tapered lid and comes from Lowe's or Home Depot or a hardware store that has more shades of paint. I didn't care for the fancy primer+paint. Sprayed unevenly.

[@gabrielglenn1714]

Did you do copper for cabinet handles?

[@vintagelyzzie]

I left the cabinet handles the silver steel color they were originally but copper would be nice too.

[@coasterkat4432]

Did you sand it before painting?

[@vintagelyzzie]

I cleaned it but didn't sand.....I'm lazy. Sanding before painting is always a good idea.

❤️❤️❤️

[@vintagelyzzie]

Thanks

[@Valoresmorales]

You need to shake it very well before each use

[@vintagelyzzie]

True true. I did shake for several minutes before using it. Then after clogging shook more.

[@janisrice6372]

Not shaking it enough

[@vintagelyzzie]

Thanks thats what I thought too. But I shook it for like 5 min off camera. Either my can was defective or others had the same issue.

[@r8av]

The color is nice but the spraying is horrible lol

[@vintagelyzzie]

Color is great. Spraying was problematic. Also cleaning a year later made marks that needed more paint......boo. Granted the vent hood isn't functional so many others won't have same issue.
