Painting vinyl floor

KKAbsherwrites on Jul 31, 2015You need to give it a good wash with TSP and once thoroughly dried (12-24 hours), use2 coats of Zinsser Cover Stain Primer. It is stinky because it is oil based, but it is a bonding primer and provides the best durability. I painted our laundry room floor and primed with that and it has held up no problem for 3 years - lots of abuse on it. I used latex paint on top and then sealed with Verathane Floor (water based) Sealer. Good luck!Helpful Reply

Sharon on Aug 01, 2015Personally I swear by Gripper primer. I got a drop on my kitchen floor and I couldn't even scrape it off. Painted an asbestos shingled house and used that primer and 5 years later the paint was still perfect. Pretty good since they say nothing sticks to asbestos siding.Helpful Reply

Sue on Aug 01, 2015Scrub floor clean and rinse. Use Rustoleum brand OIL-BASED paint and let dry for two days. Be careful no one steps on it (especially pets) for two days' to dry solid. If it's damp or rainy, wait 4 days to step on it--and enjoy!Helpful Reply
