Painting tiles with yellow tile paint - is it possible?
Painting tiles in yellow colours is very easy if you keep a few things in mind: It is important that the tiles are completely clean. Grease, dust and limescale residue must be carefully removed. The best way to do this is to use the mild but extremely effective MissPompadour To Cleaner.
Next, the silicone joints may need to be painted over. This is because varnishes cannot adhere to silicone. That's what To Seal Silicone is for. Apply the liquid to the silicone joints with a thin brush.
To ensure that the yellow tile paint adheres well to the smooth surface of your tiles, it is advisable to prime with MissPompadour To Bond & Block. This primer creates an even surface to which your colour will adhere. The primer also increases the opacity of the yellow paint colour, especially if you want to paint over patterned tiles. Finally, paint with the tile paint in your chosen colour. Simply paint the joints as well. This gives a smooth result.
Use this varnish to paint tiles yellow
At MissPompadour, you will find a varnish that is ideal for painting tiles. It is the Eggshell Varnish Varnish quality. This low-odour, environmentally friendly varnish, which is available in over 90 different colour shades, gives you a silky matt, elegant surface. This tile paint is also extremely easy to clean and doesn't resent cleaning, even with cleaning agents. If you also want to paint the floor tiles - no problem! With the help of MissPompadour stencils, you can conjure up a great pattern on the floor. Finally, it's best to stabilise the floor with To Seal. This additional protective layer makes the tile colour even more resistant to pressure, impact and scratches.
Eggshell Varnish adheres to almost all tiles, although there are a few exceptions: Waxed or otherwise impregnated tiles usually cannot be painted, nor can tiles with a lotus effect.
Sunshine for your home with yellow tile paint
With a coat of paint in yellow colours, you can simply let the sun rise in any room. Even if your bathroom doesn't have a window, you can conjure up more light, brightness and a good mood in your bathroom with varnishes in yellow. The tile paint even proves its water resistance on wall tiles in the shower. In combination with To Seal, it tolerates running water wonderfully, only standing water should be avoided. You should therefore not paint floor tiles in the shower.
Yellow tiles in the bathroom for a good morning
Especially in the morning, when it's often difficult to get up, you can really use a boost of light and freshness. How about designing your bathroom so that it puts a smile on your face when you enter? That really can happen with tile paint in yellow tones. MissPompadour Paint Yellow with Sun is such a wake-up colour. Maybe you paint the floor in a white with a slight yellow tint like White with Sun and then use Yellow with Sun on the wall tiles. If you want to paint the ceiling to match, that's no problem - all Eggshell Varnish colour shades are also available as matching yellow wall paints.
Painting tiled splashbacks in the kitchen yellow
Yellow tile paint can make a great change, and not just in the bathroom. A friendly yellow like Yellow with Lemon on the backsplash goes well with many coloured kitchens, especially white or grey kitchen furniture. Careful pre-cleaning is particularly important in kitchens. This is because grease tends to accumulate in rooms where cooking takes place. And varnishes cannot adhere to grease. Therefore, any grease on the tiles must first be carefully removed with MissPompadour To Clean. To Bond & Block is then applied. This optimally prepares the surface for the varnish. A primer additionally increases the opacity of patterned tiles in particular. This is followed by the yellow tile colour. As a tiled splashback in the kitchen is cleaned frequently and intensively, it is advisable to additionally stabilise the varnish with To Seal. This will make your coat of tile paint even more durable.
It can also have a subtle effect if the floor tiles match the colour of the varnish on the wall tiles. However, as yellow floor tiles show dirt very clearly, we recommend using MissPompadour stencils to create a great pattern. For example, if you have painted your backsplash with Yellow with Saffron and the floor tiles with Brown with Dark Chocolate, you could stencil a pattern on the floor with the rest of the yellow colour. Please note that both the backsplash and the floor tiles should be stabilised with To Seal at the end.
Yellow tiles in the utility room

Your utility room will immediately have a fresh, friendly and bright atmosphere. A very light colour between fresh yellow and white that is perfect for this is MissPompadour Paint White with Ginger. A fresh, friendly tile colour like this immediately makes working more fun. Send us photos of your work, we'd love to see them.
