Lisa Wood on Mar 08, 2015I've sponged paint on fixtures before, then sealed it with a coat of poly. The projects turned out great.Helpful Reply

D & K on Mar 08, 2015I agree with Lisa and to add to that I say be certain to scuff and prime the existing finish before doing anything. It always works out that the only thing worse than the way something looks now is the way it looks when something is done improperly and incorrectly.Helpful Reply

Cherie on Mar 08, 2015Rub 'n Buff!! It's one of the easiest products I've ever used to change metal from one color to another! I changed our brass bath light fixtures to silver about 6 years ago and they still look great! Find it at Home Depot or Michaels and other hardware stores and it comes in about 12 different colors! You put it on with your fingers, believe it or not, and just rub in on - no sanding required just a clean surface.Helpful Reply
