How many coats of kilz do i need? and what kind of paint should i use after on my wicker furniture?

im trying to paint my wicker furniture from black to white. i spray painted it once already with kilz but it has a purple tint to it now i bought some krylon spray paint for wicker and tryed painting over it and you couldn't even tell. So im wondering if i should paint another light coat of kilz and then spray paint the kylon on or some other kind of spray paint? also i was wondering if i should put some type of glaze on afterwards? thx in advancedHow many coats of kilz do i need? and what kind of paint should i use after on my wicker furniture?
Pick up a can of white primer and give it 2 light coats. then give it 2-3 light coats with the finish paint. Do not try to save time by applying heavy coats or you will end up with runs all over the place. Hope this helps.How many coats of kilz do i need? and what kind of paint should i use after on my wicker furniture?
The advertisement says one coat of kilz should do it. Krylon is not a heavy-duty paint. You might try what's called '; base coat'; then a layer of white spray on enamel. If it's to be outdoors put Thompson's Weather Sealant; They have it in spray or paint on. It should do the trick. Also, you could consult Home Depo but the above information is accurate.
I think you'll have a hard time going such an extreme on color without it looking like its gobbed with paint. I would go for a navy or dark green instead, still doing the kilz. If you still want white, just keep layering it on and letting it dry for a few days.
I'd use enough primer to get it to look almost pure white. The reason being, you're going to paint a couple coats of a white paint over it, so it will continue to look whiter, but it's better to be safe than sorry with paint!
The more coats the better! Killz is kinda thin, I needed 3 coats to make a good primer on the walls of this nasty apartment I rented awhile back. I would imagine you would need some decent coats since you're making such a drastic change in color.
There's some kind of chemical interaction going on that is not good. Considering the cost of Krylon and Kilz (which haven't worked), I would buy the cheapest possible spray paint from a dollar store and try that.
Kilz is really a primer. I would suggest that you go to your paint store %26amp; see what they say. You might save yourself time %26amp; money by asking a pro.
buy a resperator if you are gonna use killz...


or enjoy the free buzz
Woodtick is on it.


Real wicker?


Stripped %26amp; painted lots of antique wicker in old shop, some dark green to white.( but not black).


Thick coats of anything can soften what 's underneath %26amp; cause it to bleed through.


Use thin well dried prime coats.


You may see some ';color'; but it should not appear to be ';weeping'; from below.


Might try light grey auto primer; at his point can't hurt.


Spraying is best but ';soaking'; w/ paint can start the bleeding all over again


Trick to painting wicker is not to over do it.


Wicker flexes %26amp; thick paint will separate as it ';works'; %26amp; dull any detail.


For repainting un-stripped pieces sprayed oil based primer %26amp; exterior oil based semi gloss or gloss enamel.


Reason ?.... that's what's been keeping the old stuff around so long.


If you stop the bleed through, krylon should be fine.


Would not use a glaze/ clearcoat.
