HoW tO trANsfOrm An OLd-FashiONeD raDiAtoR!





wHat Do YOu NeEd? 
-An old fashioned radiator
-2 Average Paint brushes
-1 Small Paint brush for detail
-Oil-paints in two different colours (pink & orange)
-Adhesive tape
-Old newspapers
-Old Clothes 




sTeP 1
Empty the radiator from unessesary plush toys.
Wear the old clothes that you don't mind getting destroyed
Lay the old newspapers around the radiator to protect the floor from paint 

SteP 2
Paint the radiator pink and let the paint dry for an hour or more until completely dry.


After the paint is dry, repeat this step if necessary. 

stEP 3
Decide which parts of the radiator want to paint orange and mark their edges with adhesive tape, preferably covering all the parts you want to keep pink. Make sure that the tape is stuck well and use your fingers to correct any air gaps (really important!) Paint the areas you have marked orange.
 
STep 4
Wait for about two hours until the paint is completely dry and remove the adhesive tape (you have to be 100% sure that the paint is dry, if its not then the paint will be destroyed).
The radiator is ready!
