Painting a radiator is much simpler and faster than you can imagine if you do it with spray paint. To renew your old radiator and make it look like new, just follow the steps below.

1º.- Clean the radiator and protect the area:

First, it will be necessary to clean the radiator with cleaning alcohol to remove dust and dirt. In this way, the adhesion of the paint will be facilitated. In case the original radiator paint is in poor condition, we will remove it with Greenox paint stripper spray.

It is convenient to cover the surrounding area with cardboard or protective paper so as not to stain the wall or floor. In this way, it is not even necessary to disassemble the radiator.

2º.- Apply paint for radiators:

Next, Pintyplus Tech radiator paint will be applied. This type of paint is specially formulated for touch-up and preservation of cast and aluminum radiators that we usually have at home. To paint with it, the following steps must be followed:

• • 1. Shake the can for 1 minute after the sound of the mixing balls.
    2. Spray at a distance of 25/30 cm.
    3. Apply thin layers, first horizontally and then vertically.

In just 15 minutes the paint will have dried and you can go to the next step.

3º. Color the radiator:

The third and final step will be to apply color if we do not want our radiator to be white. Otherwise, it will be sufficient to paint the radiator with the spray paint for radiators.

As what was sought was a radical change that completely renewed the look of the old radiator, the RAL 1018 Zinc Yellow color was chosen from the wide color chart of Pintyplus Evolution.

Its application is as simple as that of radiator paint. Just follow the same steps. In addition, its spray format allows you to reach every corner of the radiator, including its interior.

On the other hand, if you decide to change color over time, it is not necessary to repaint the radiator with special radiator paint. Simply choose another color of the letter and you will renew the radiator in just a few minutes.

After following these steps, the radiator will remain once it is updated.

What a change, right? It has nothing to do with the yellowish and dull radiator of the beginning. The best of all is that only a couple of cans of spray paint have been needed and just one hour to make this change possible.
