I disliked my ceramic backsplash. Actually, I pretty much disliked my whole kitchen but with a very limited budget, I really couldn't gut it. so after many warnings NOT to paint ceramic tile, I jumped in with both feet.
I'm rebellious that way.

This was my nemesis.
My default setting is always to "just paint it!"
I then painted all the grout lines the same color I would eventually paint my cabinets...it was a BEHR latex paint, satin finish (not that it matters)
Here you can see the tile that's not shinny. that's with the 2 coats of paint.
...working my way around!
Kitchen after...
Enjoyed the project?

Have a question about this project?
I love it. Can you paint floor tile this way also? I would like to do mine.
do you have to use the epoxy or can you just use paint?
What about grease above the stove?
