Toilet seats are among the most used bathroom surfaces. However, the effects of frequent cleaning can appear long after the seat needs to be replaced. Plastic, acrylic, and wooden toilet seats are all decent options for painting, but you’ll need the appropriate paint in order for it to last for a long time. While latex paint is utilized extensively in many households and offices, cleaning it with disinfectants could cause the paint to wear away quickly. To avoid any unnecessary mess, remove your seat before painting. Removing the toilet seat requires removing the nut from the bolts behind the bowl on the toilet seat and then take off the seat.

• Set the toilet seat along with the nuts and bolts on the drop cloth. Cleanse the hardware and the seat by using a disinfectant cleaner. Use scrub brushes to clean in crevices, as well as sponges to wash the lid and seat. Rinse the seat using an aqueous sponge and clean all surfaces with an abrasive.

• Inspect any parts of the lid or seat which you do not wish to paint, for instance, hinges, using painter’s tape. If wrapping tape around smaller regions is difficult, apply the tape and then trim away any excess tape using a utility knife.

• Sand the bottom and top of the lid and seat using fine-grit sandpaper till the surface is dull or not as shiny. Clean the surfaces you have sanded using a moist sponge to clean off sanding debris.

• Shake the Spray primer with a lot of force to blend the components. If the seat of your toilet is made of acrylic or plastic then you’ll require an acrylic or plastic spray primer.

• Lift the lid of the seat and then fold it back until the seat is opened and laid flat on the drop cloth. If any spots remain damp after rinsing, clean them dry with a towel.

• Spray the areas that are exposed to the lid and seat with primer spray with light and sweeping motion. Keep a distance of approximately 1 foot. Spray from a variety of angles to get a consistent coverage of the edges.

• Allow the primer to dry before turning the seat assembly around. 

• Shake a spray paint for wood or plastic when the primer is dry and then apply a thin coat of paint on the edges of your seat.
• Remove the tape once the spray paint has dried. Next, reattach the toilet seat by reusing the bolts and nuts you removed at the beginning.
