Painting Bathroom Walls | Best Paint & Drywall Primer Sealer | Bathroom Makeover On A Budget EP.8

I'm sharing my process for painting bathroom walls and how I found the best paint and drywall primer sealer for my bathroom in this episode of my "Bathroom Makeover On A Budget" series. Bathrooms are humid and steamy which makes picking the best primer and paint for your bathroom walls and ceiling really important. You want a good primer and paint that helps to make your bathroom walls mold and mildew resistant. You also want to make sure you properly prep your space and pick the right products so the paint doesn't peel.

OMG...I just refinished my tub and sink to my new home. I plan to paint my bathroom and bedroom walls next weekend on a budget. Your videos are so helpful. I really appreciate you sharing your experiences with everyone. Thank you.

This is an amazing transformation! So much attention to detail. Very helpful information. A tidbit learned to help me be less messy when pouring paint is using painters tape or packaging tape to form a "V" on the top of cans in order to direct the flow. On gallon cans I use 2" wide tape or add an extra strip of narrow tape. On smaller cans the tape width isn't an issue. I admit I wasn't aware they sold pour-lids with detachable spouts. That makes it easier to stack paint for storage = so helpful. New subbie.

I was thinking about painting my bathroom but this looks like a lot of double work. Looks great.

Prep work: Put cat and his litter box elsewhere and shut the door and listen to him Meow Meow Meow like someone is killing him. Then open door and let cat in and watch him get into paint and whatever else he can find to cause trouble because the spare bathroom is where his litter box is (was). My cat has separation anxiety and thinks he's a person.

If you didn't get all the dust wiping down after the sanding it's really important to sand after the first primer coat.

I just used that brand paint in eggshell finish in my bathroom and wish I went with the flat because I hardly use the room. It’s just too shiny. I was just worried about the steam and being able to clean it.

I will say I lived in a rental house with flat paint in the bathroom and it constantly developed mold by the shower and was hard to clean.

Am I crazy (well, ya, but you know what I mean), or, did you only paint your walls + trim w Behr Simply White, leaving your ceiling w 2 coats of Kilz primer only?

Did you have your paint sprayer when you did this? If yes why not spray it?

This is an incredibly good video. For me, the only thing missing is a joint compound, as I need to fill some gaps first. Would have been nice to see what to use and how to do it in a bathroom, but I understand that's something you didn't need to do. Thanks for the other tips.
