Painting a Wrought Iron Fence

Are you looking to freshen up the appearance of your wrought iron fence? One easy and affordable way to do this is by giving it a new coat of paint. Here's a step-by-step guide from the team at Fence Fanatics, your trusted fencing experts in Dallas Fort Worth, on how to paint a wrought iron fence:

Preparation:

Before you begin, it's important to properly prepare your fence for painting. First, remove any dirt, debris, and rust from the surface of the fence using a wire brush or sandpaper. You can also use a pressure washer to blast away any loose dirt and grime.

Once the fence is clean and dry, use a rust inhibitor to prevent any further rusting. This is especially important if your fence has any areas of existing rust, as these will need to be treated before painting.

Painting:

After the rust inhibitor has dried, it's time to start painting. Choose a high-quality, paint and primer, weather-resistant paint designed for use on wrought iron fences. You'll want to use a sprayer, and brush to apply the paint, working in small sections and using long, even strokes.

By following these steps, you can give your wrought iron fence a fresh, new look that will add value and beauty to your property.
