How do I spray paint?
Want to spray paint my kitchen chandelier. Easiest way? It has a chain. I have several ideas. Just would like to know should I do chain first, then the body? Or opposite? Would appreciate any advice. Thanks!

If you can find a place to hang the chandelier outside to spray they are easy to do. Start from the top and spray down. Don't try to cover everything with the first coat. Do several light coats. Hope this is helpful.
Hello Kristen,
Often I hang items from s hooks on tree branches to effectively efficiently spray paint the item in a 360* manner.
For a professional finish, follow label instructions
Clean item thoroughly.
Use several light coats
I highly recommend the primer and paint spray paint options, my preference is a Rustoleum universal line.
Find a way to hang it! If not, it could turn into sticky mess. I've used two ladders before to hang a light in the middle. Just make sure it's secure so it doesn't fall!
