Painting bathroom tiles.

If using the correct paint etc, can a completely tiled bathroom look nice painted white. I have some stunning decals that would look amazing.

Decorating the bathroom another way is not an option. It needs a complete refurb.

Thanks

No. It really won't. And decals will also look pretty horrid. Clean your tiles, rake out grout and regroup if you can. And wait til you are in a position to do a proper refurb. Sorry!

Ours did look nice but after a few years it has started peelogn off so now doesn't look nice,w e are going to repaint tho as we can't afford to refile the whole bathroom.

You need to clean them thoroughly and use proper primer amd tile paint.

Sorry, I'm with Turniphead on this one... painting tiles just doesn't work IMO
