Steps

1. 

   Remove any loose or flaking paint by thoroughly scraping or sanding your garden chair. You may also want to put down a dust sheet to protect your patio. Clean your chair with Krud Kutter in order to remove any dirt, grime or other contaminants. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry.    

2. 

   Shake the can vigorously for one minute and set the Switch dial to number 2, selecting Standard output. The Standard output provides a classic spray pattern, making it easy-to-use while providing great coverage. Ideal for garden chairs and other exterior décor such as flowerpots, birdhouses and more.  

   Now you’re ready to start spraying! To achieve a smooth finish, hold the can roughly 30cm away from the surface. Spray the body of the chair horizontally, in a steady back and forth motion, while slightly overlapping each stroke. If spraying bare metal or plastic, make sure to use a suitable primer first. 

3. 

   Spray the legs of the chair vertically using the same method, and any other nooks and crannies you may have missed. Apply a second coat within an hour if necessary.  

   Top tip: after use, turn the can upside down and spray for 2-3 seconds to clear the spray nozzle, so it’s ready for your next project. Repeat this step for each nozzle used by rotating the dial. 

4. 

   And that’s it! Touch dry in 15 minutes and hard dry in 4 hours, stand back to admire your revamped garden chair. We went for a modern matt finish in classic black for a sleek, contemporary update.  

   Whether you’re painting large pieces of furniture or smaller accessories, there’s a spray nozzle to suit your project. With 22 stunning shades and matt, satin and gloss finishes to choose from, Switch is a simple, effective way of upcycling décor.
