Step by step guide
Step Number1
Yoghurt pots

Wash the pots thoroughly in hot soapy water to remove traces of food and grease. Allow to dry.

 
Step Number2

Lay the pots and their lids out on newspaper in a well-ventilated work area.

 
Step Number3


Apply an even coat of White Primer to the pots and lids.

 
Step Number4


Spray each pot in a different color. We used Satin Real Red, Satin Apple Green and Satin Pastel Green. Spray all the lids with Satin White.

 
Step Number5

When the pots are dry, apply adhesive letters to label each one - S for screws, N for nails and B for bolts.

 
Step Number6


Finish with a topcoat of Clear Acrylic for extra protection.

 
Step Number7


Note: Always follow usage instructions on the reverse of Valspar spray paint cans.
