How to PAINT Patio Cushions

Super helpful, useful, practical and love the visuals! thanks!

This is very helpful! I understand the budget situation completley so this is a great option for me. ill keep u posted! thank you so much!

Thanks!! Great tutorial:))) I can’t wait!

Worked! Thanks for the video and making it easy to follow. I needed a quick update on my Hanging Hammock lounges, I added a little more paint to my mixer but the end product turned out great! I only did one side after reading that they have a harder time draining if they are rained on. Thank you!

I bet is amazing info. After up to 20 coats I thought I'm not made for this.

I read online you can use auto upholstery paint as long as it says flexible on the label. It looked easier because it was spray paint. When done you get the outdoor fabric waterproofing and fade resistant spray by scotch guard It looked great and the man said he was on second year of using them with no issues

Thank you! Very well done!

I used spray tie dye and got stencils and it turned out great, after you do it you take a hair dryer and dry it and that sets the dye. I had white cushions that got dirty but didn't want to wash them for getting damaged.

Been looking for you!

Thanks

I love the idea that the fabric stays soft by using a very watered down mix. Some folks are saying the inside foam hardens for some. I had made new covers for mine a few years back, but those are faded. I tried dying them with Rit Dye, but they faded out again immediately! Argh!!!! I’m going to take the covers off, paint them, but before putting them back on, wrap an extra layer of batting on the entire cushion, then wrap that in plastic sheeting and seal with duct tape. This way, when I put the outer cover back, the inside cushion will be protected from water. I’m also going to add buttons for some tufting. I’ll post when done!

How long does it take to dry enough to sit on them? Do you need to seal the paint?

Did you paint the wicker patio and what color was it? I want to redo mine?

Nice

Do you have to let it dry in between coats?

Hi! I have 2 outdoor papasan chairs, and a mamasan someone gave me that's faded and needs tlc. I have a paint sprayer and was looking into different ways to revamp the faded cushions. Using spray paint would take 3 days and lots of cans = $$$. Thanks so much for posting this video, hopefully I can find fabric medium locally as today is my only day off. Also, I was reading some of the comments here and I just want to say, idk how you deal w the public. YouTube would suspend my channel in no time...if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all!! Smh. Ty again!!!

How did you paint the wicker part ? Is there a tutorial video? And did the paint on the wicker hold up?

I started this project today, followed all the steps, bought all the materials, EXCEPT I didn't buy LATEX I didn't see that it was ACRYLIC until I was halfway through! Do you foresee any problems or adjustments I need to make using acrylic paint?

Would it be possible to do the first coat with the 8 ounce ratio and then less on the subsequent coats, surely 2 or 3 would suffice, acrylic paint is very flexible anyway?

Hello - I love this! I have about 10 outdoor cushions I want to paint! I can't find any paint medium. :( Can you post the brand name of it so I have a direction to search in?
