I’m going to wait a full year though before I consider this treatment on our other windows, just to see how they hold up.Īfter painting the windows I touched up all the walls with Benjamin Moore “Chantilly Lace” and then added these brass curtain rods, and these Grey Curtains from Hobby Lobby. It was a risk I was willing to take though because I hated our windows so much.

I’m SO glad that I tackled this project! I was reassured by multiple paint guys that because I was painting the interior of the windows they didn’t *think* they would warp. Only one window lightly scratched my paint job which I was able to easily touch up, and now it opens and closes easily.

Once the windows were newly dry, I opened and closed each window so that it wouldn’t be painted shut.

I made sure to remove all my tape while the paint was still wet so that it wouldn’t peel any paint.

Once this was dry I made sure my “black” (turquoise blue) paint was mixed thoroughly and sprayed two coats on the windows.

Next I used my Graco Truecoat 360 paint sprayer to put a coat of Bulls Eye gray primer on the windows and trim.

Honestly I wish I would have used even more because there was still a bit of overspray.

Then I used masking paper to cover the windows, walls, and floor.

I started by taping off all the window edges with FrogTape.

Before painting it onto my windows I tested it on multiple surfaces and sure enough two coats looked black on all of them! (I’m including a photo of the paint label for you) He assured me that with two dry coats it would look black. Upon quite a bit of debating, the Sherwin Williams paint guy encouraged me that he COULD make black with maroon, blue, and deep gold colorants! I was SUPER hesitant when the paint came out of the mixer looking like a deep turquoise.

The vinyl safe colors don’t use any black pigments because the black attracts too much heat.

I REALLY wanted to paint my windows black, so I discovered Sherwin Williams Vinyl Safe Paint Colors.

Because dark paint colors on vinyl attract heat, you have to paint them a lighter color.

In our master bedroom I wasn’t sure how to tackle the windows, so I used black electrical tape to give the appearance of black windows! I knew this wasn’t a long term solution though. I really don’t understand why they wouldn’t pick white… or black, but I’ve been on a mission to figure out how to paint them. Within the last 10 years someone replaced all of the windows with really nice TAN vinyl windows. One of my biggest obstacles in this house has been the window color. After tons of research, today I’m sharing all my tips for painting vinyl windows black!
