I've painted wood floors, and I used floor paint and followed up with several coats of clear sealer that was recommended for floors. Make sure your prep is meticulous and use a good sealer like Kilz before painting. You can get the Kilz tinted so you have matching color to your floor paint.
Wow! I wasn't aware that you could paint floor tiles! The creative monster is rolling around in my head right now!! LOL Also, I would just like to say that everyone that has replied have been very nice and helpful for you and everyone else for that matter. It's so nice not to see a bored bully on your thread. Best of luck
Hi: you can paint with concrete paint or epoxy paint. However they really will not last very long for the work that you are about to endeavor. If the tiles are in good shape why not just change the grout color with grout refresh. That stuff is amazing.
Hi Mary, I did some more searching and found a video you might enjoy seeing. Remember, you can also stencil a design on your tiles which will totally change the look in your home.
