How to Paint over Laminate Floors
Hey friends! Thanks for stopping by today! I'd like to share with you how we transformed our boring laminate floors in the guest bathroom and took them from blah to wow in just a couple of steps!
(This post is part 1 of a 2-part series. To see our completely renovated guest bathroom, part 2 of this series, please click this link.) ;)
Here's what we used:
HGTV Home Showcase paint with an eggshell finish (in the color Snowbound) by Sherwin Williams
Nylox paint brush by Purdy
PowerLock Extension Pole by Purdy
9" roller by Purdy
First, after sweeping the bathroom floor, my sweet hubby used his belt sander that he bought at a yard sale and sanded the entire floor. Then, using a damp cloth, he wiped up all the dust.
Next, using our paint and paint supplies, my hubby carefully painted the floors. Lastly, he dried the freshly-painted floor using a floor fan. We kept the fan blowing onto the flooring for a couple of days just to ensure that it was completely dry.
I am in love with the outcome of these painted laminate floors! They're so bright and cheerful! I think we'll eventually add a coat of poly to the floors, so that they'll clean more easily, but other than that, we LOVE how the floors turned out!

I'd like to give a huge thank you to Sherwin Williams for the paint and supplies! They sent me these fabulous products for my honest review, and I'm happy to say that I'm very pleased with the outcome....I especially love the extension pole for our roller! It was such a snap to connect the roller to the pole, and my hubby loved the fact that he didn't have to bend over to roll the paint onto the floor! Also, I love that this paint is a stain-blocking paint, plus it's mildew-resistant....Perfect for a bathroom!
Thanks again for stopping by! What do you think about these floors? Is this idea something you'd do to your floors? If so, I'd love to hear about it! Leave a comment below, or say hello on Instagram or Facebook! You can also find me on Pinterest pinning pretty pics almost every day!
