Yesterday I went to buy some supplies for the Cryocan project, and this afternoon I started. I am so excited about it!
I started by taking out the cap and nozzle, and then priming and painting the top of the can in white. I gave a couple of coats of spray primer, and then another two of spray white paint:
I covered the can up until the rim with newspaper to protect it |
Once removed the paper the results are great! |
No silver showing anywhere |
Yay! |
I set the can aside to let it dry well. I left it on my husband's table, because if it is in mine, I will not stop handling it, and I don't want to risk ruining the work.
Next, I took the cap and nozzle, and gave them a coat of primer:
I let them dry for 10 minutes, and then applied a couple of coats of spray blue paint:
I sprayed them outside, of course, but they were taking some time to dry properly, and I decided to bring them in, and also not touch them more until tomorrow. I am sure the shade of blue I used is not the same as the original can, but it is what was available. Hubby says the nozzle looks great - he is the expert, if he says so, I believe him :)
Tomorrow more!
