Painting vinyl blinds

Question

Does anyone out there know if vinyl mini blinds can be painted or should I just go buy new ones as they are dirt cheap?

Debbie Jensen · Answer

I don't think vinyl will hold paint especially on mini-blinds.  Buy new ones, they're inexpensive!

Buy new ones

If you are going to throw them away, why not try one and see. Make sure all grease and dirt is removed from them first. You can do that by putting them into your bathtub and soaking in vinegar or ammonia and water. Then rinse and dry.

Quite frankly the time and energy put into it would not be worth it.  You can find fairly inexpensive ones Nell.  I'd go that route.

Some have spray painted blinds, but the strings/ropes get sprayed too and would stiffen up from the paint. Not worth the time, effort, and paint. Buy new ones. Then you can choose what you really want.

I spray painted mine and they turned out Beautiful, just like a bran new blind

Gerrianne Hartse · Answer

I just used spray paint in the color I wanted, took the strings out of the blinds and laid them out of a big piece of cardboard and carefully spray'd them, i was very happy with the results. I had Mauve blinds and spray painted them a pretty khaki color
