Step-by-step application process

Step 1: Create a white base

Spray the ornaments with BEHR PREMIUM® Spray Paint White Gloss using light, even coats. Allow to dry completely before moving to the next step.

Tip:

Apply several light coats rather than one heavy coat to help achieve more even coverage and avoid drips.

Step 2: Add a metallic gold accent

Once dry, spray the top half of each ornament with BEHR PREMIUM® Metallic Gold Gloss to create a two-tone holiday finish.
