Instead of new tiles: Paint tiles brown with tile paint

Paint tiles brown: Simple and easy to clean

The advantage of brown colour shades is that they are not as sensitive. This is why brown tones are also well suited for tiles on the floor, for example in the entrance area. A family bathroom can also be made robust yet elegant with brown tile paint. And a tiled splashback in the kitchen can be given a whole new look with tile paint in brown.

In any case, it is a better decision to embellish your wall tiles or floor tiles with tile paint than to remove them and install new tiles. Because that doesn't work without tradesmen, a lot of dirt and high costs. In contrast, painting tiles is cheap and dirt-free.

Painting tiles brown with tile paint - is that even possible?

Of course, you're wondering whether the varnish can even stick to the smooth surface. The answer is a resounding yes! If you follow a few tips, tile paints work very well and you will get a perfect result.

Firstly, it is very important to clean the tile surfaces well. There must be no dust, limescale or even grease residue on the surface. It is best to use the mild but effective MissPompadour To Cleaner. Avoid aggressive, highly alkaline or chlorinated cleaning agents at all costs. These could get stuck in the joints and destroy your coating later.

Next, you should treat silicone joints, which are often found in bathrooms. This is because colour cannot adhere to silicone. You can find the To Seal Silicone Primer at MissPompadour. Apply it thinly to the silicone with a brush, then you can paint over it with the primer for the varnish or tile colour.

Now prime the tiled surface with MissPompadour To Bond & Block. This ensures that the tile paint adheres well even to very smooth surfaces. To Bond & Block also provides an even colour base for your coat of brown tile paint. With the help of the primer, it is also possible to simply paint away intense patterns. This is because it also increases the already very high opacity of the varnishes.

Paint tiles with this brown tile paint

Easy Eggshell! is perfect as a tile paint. You get a soft, silky matt, elegant surface that can withstand water and is easy to clean, even with gentle cleaning agents. The tile paint can be used in any room with tiles: In the bathroom, kitchen, utility room and hallway, you can beautify your tiles everywhere with brown tile paint. It can also be used to paint exterior wall tiles. Easy Eggshell! is available in over 100 colour shades and, of course, in many shades of brown lacquer, from light to dark.

Apply the varnish to the tiles on the wall or floor twice with a roller. You should only use a brush for the joints. How pleasant that the tile paint from MissPompadour is sustainable and practically odourless! Finally, you should stabilise floor tiles with MissPompadour To Seal. This makes your coating harder and also increases its water resistance.

Easy Eggshell! adheres to almost all tiles, although there are a few exceptions: Waxed or otherwise impregnated tiles usually cannot be painted, nor can tiles with a lotus effect.

Brown tile colour for many rooms

You can create a whole new ambience in any room in the house with brown tile paint. By giving your tiles a completely different look with varnish in new colours, you can transform a room enormously. Brown-coloured varnish can make a big difference.

Tile paint: paint the floor brown

Can a floor painted with tile paint withstand the wear and tear it is exposed to, especially in the entrance area? Doesn't a floor covering need to be harder? Of course, different demands are placed on floor tiles, but our Easy Eggshell! is the right choice here too. Finally, stabilise your floor with To Seal to make it even harder and more resistant. Stabilising the varnish also makes it easy to clean with water and cleaning products.

In the hallway or entrance area, you could perhaps paint your floor in several lacquer colours. Take a look at the large selection of MissPompadour Stencils. Here you can print a pattern in different colours on your tiles with brown tile paint. Perhaps you use a light brown like Brown with Choc and stencil your pattern with Brown with Dark Chocolate and Brown with Nougat - a real confectionery combination for your tiled floor.

Redesign bathroom wall tiles with tile paint

You can also paint the tiled walls in the bathroom with brown paint and perhaps combine it with another, darker brown tile paint on the floor. You can also design the ceiling to match - all of our brown colour shades are not only available as varnishes, but also as wall paints in brown. Natural wood accessories and green leafy plants make for a great result.

Incidentally, the joints of the tiles are simply painted with the brown tile paint. This results in a wonderfully smooth surface. If you want to preserve the look of the joints and have patience and a steady hand, you can paint them with varnish in a contrasting colour.

Painting tiles: Brown in the kitchen

There is often a tiled splashback in the kitchen whose colours no longer match the new, modern kitchen furniture. Simply paint it with brown tile paint or use a colour that combines brown and grey, such as MissPompadour Paints Grey with Brown. If you have a light-coloured kitchen and want to make the backsplash deep and dark but still warm, take a look at Brown with Black.

Bear in mind that a greasy haze can easily form in the kitchen, which then settles throughout the room. Thorough cleaning with To Clean is particularly important here before applying the varnishes.

Brown tile colour for utility rooms

You can also beautify your utility room with brown tile paint. Because working with new colours on the tiles is simply more fun. A friendly brown colour such as Brown with Terracotta brightens up the room visually. Thanks to the high opacity of the colour, you can also simply paint away ugly patterns on your tiles with brown tile paint.

Buy brown tile paint at MissPompadour

MissPompadour Paints offers a beautiful selection of different shades of brown: The very light, friendly Brown with Choc, which is reminiscent of hot chocolate, is a colour that is wonderfully suitable for tiles on the wall. The Brown with Nougat tile paint has a medium colour intensity. If this colour shade is applied as a varnish on the wall, it can also be cleverly complemented with an anthracite such as Black with Slate on the floor. Grey with Peat has brown components and is therefore well suited as a combination colour.

It is best to order a set of colour cards so that you can compare all the brown colours in any light at your leisure. The colour cards can be removed individually. Once you have made your choice, order the tools you need for the varnish, such as brushes and rollers, at the same time. This means you only have to pay for shipping once. Our project sets are customisable shopping aids that ensure you never forget a product! And if you have any further questions, please contact our expert customer service team.
