How to Paint Vinyl Shades

1. Prepare the shades. Remove the shades from the window and clean them with a mild detergent and water. Rinse them thoroughly and allow them to dry completely.

2. Apply painter's tape to the edges of the shades. This will help to prevent the paint from bleeding through to the other side of the shades.

3. Choose a paint that is specifically designed for vinyl. This type of paint will adhere well to the surface of the shades and will not damage them.

4. Apply the paint in thin coats. This will help to prevent the paint from dripping or running. Allow each coat to dry completely before applying the next one.

5. Touch up any areas that need it. Once the paint is dry, use a small paintbrush to touch up any areas that need it.

6. Reinstall the shades. Once the paint is completely dry, reinstall the shades on the window.
