Recent home decoration, but I couldn\’t resist my parents\’ insistence:

I had to reinstall the ugly pig liver red bathroom door that was removed before use.

I really couldn’t stand it, so I started to modify it!

I think everyone’s family may be troubled by the ugly doors chosen by the older generation, so we will publish an issue this time about ugly bathroom doors. Strategy for counterattack transformation.

The cost is very low, even 100 yuan, but the effect is very good, like replacing a simple and high-end new door , a very strong reference.

The entire renovation process is divided into four steps, including changing the color, applying glass stickers, applying decoration, and modifying the handles. The following is a detailed explanation one by one:

1. Change color

Color determines temperament, and color is also the most difficult thing to do when changing a door. To put it simply, it means painting the door, but there are many details in it, which directly determine the effect. Let me teach you step by step:

Step 1: Polish

There are two purposes for sanding. One is to clean, and the other is to allow the new paint to adhere better.

You don’t have to work too hard, just lightly sand it with coarse sand. Here is what it looks like after polishing.

Step 2: Wipe away the floating dust

After polishing, there will inevitably be some new floating ash. In order to achieve better results with subsequent brushing, cleaning the floating ash is a necessary step.

There is nothing special about cleaning floating dust, even using a bath ball will do.

Step 3: Apply textured paper

This step is to prevent the paint from staining areas that do not need to be painted. Note that in addition to the masking film covering large areas , you need to apply additional textured paper on the glass. Don’t be afraid that some places cannot be painted with the textured paper. You can use a small brush to trace later.

P. Step 4: First coat of paint

Stir before brushing, stir well and then dip the brush in.

After dipping, be sure to wipe off the excess paint on the brush on the edge of the bucket to prevent too much paint from flowing downwards .

Then, start painting. Remember to apply it thinly in the first time. The effect will be unbearable after painting, so hold back at this time. , don’t try to cover it completely with the first coat of paint

What you have to do is, wait, wait for the first coat of paint to dry, and don’t wait too long, it will feel a little bit. Once it\’s sticky and doesn\’t make your hands too dark, you can paint it a second time.

Step 5: Apply the second coat of paint

Similar to the first pass, in the second pass, it was basically covered and looked a little better.

Step 6: Fix the details for the third time

You can use a small brush to repair the details that have not been brushed until the details are completely processed.

Step 7: Roller brush

If the third pass is acceptable, brighten the surface For a smooth effect, the seventh step of roller brushing is not needed.

The purpose of the roller brush is to give it a matte feel.

Of course, it is recommended to use a roller brush. I still think it is better to have a frosted and matte texture, especially when applying black paint.

Step 8: Wait and enjoy

After completing the above seven steps, the only thing to do next is to wait for it to dry and then admire the new paint.

Black, like other colors, white can also cover up the red color of pig liver. It will also scare people the first time. The second or third time is enough. You can feel free to do it and choose the color you like.

2. Apply glass stickers

If the original door is in good condition, it can be finished after painting.

But for many bathroom doors, the glass part is also damaged. It’s not satisfactory, so it needs to be changed!

The situation of each family here is different. There are generally two situations. The solutions are given below:

①No pattern, just want to change to a different kind of glass

Like the one in the picture, there are no fancy patterns and it is quite simple. Then you only need to apply a glass film that satisfies you. Just fine.

The owner of the house in the picture changed the transparent glass to Changhong glass, which has a much better temperament;

In addition to Changhong glass, there are also rattan window films, diamond-shaped glass films, oil sand glass films, and water corrugated glass films. …can be chosen.

Just choose according to your own style and preferences.

②There are ugly patterns that need to be covered up

If you encounter this kind of ugly pattern, you may not be able to cover it by applying the film directly, so you need to take an extra step – apply a mirror sticker.

Under the glass film, a layer of mirror sticker needs to be applied to completely cover it;

In addition, before the renovation, there was a lot of ugly glass that was frosted and could not be adhered to with electrostatic glass film, so it also needed to be primed with mirror stickers

When applying, you need to pay attention to leveling it and scraping it down bit by bit, just like applying a mobile phone film. Let’s talk about the skills. No, but be patient enough.

After attaching it to the mirror glass, you can tear off the blue film and apply the glass film on the mirror surface!

After completion, the ugly pattern on the glass can be completely covered

In fact, the effect is already very good here, the requirements are not high, and it can end here.

3. Decoration

If you have high requirements, you may also want something cute, French retro, or medieval… If you want something high-end, you can also put decorations on the door. There are generally two types of decorations:

①Pattern stickers

The advantage is that it has rich choices and is easy to peel and stick;

You can choose patterns that make you happy at any time according to your preferences, and you can even create some themed patterns according to the season.

Electrostatic stickers, it doesn’t even take a minute to peel off.

②Decorative strips

Medieval style, cream style, French retro style, pay attention to line decoration, if you feel that the simple door is not enough, you can use this kind of custom door Adhesive PVC decorative strips for decoration.

PVC strips can be bent. You only need to select the pattern you want to paste, and then use textured paper to assist in positioning. , and reproduce it according to the desired pattern.

Arcs are relatively difficult to apply. In order not to remove the glass film and apply it repeatedly, you can apply the decoration first.Strips, then cut and segmented to apply the glass film, the fixation will be better.

Although the process is difficult, the end result is satisfactory. In fact, it only costs 50 yuan to get here. Transform an ugly door into an exquisite French door, a minimalist high-end door, or a cute themed door.

4. Lock modification

Locks are the same as doors. Changing the color often changes the temperament. It can turn a rustic-looking, outdated lock into a new lock with a full retro feel. .

Remember it must be self-painting. Locking is relatively complicated and cannot be done well by brushing;
