kitchen - makeover part II

Next in the kitchen makeover was painting the red tile backsplash. First step was the primer. I used Stix Waterborne Bonding Primer - Urethane Acrylic.

The next day I painted the backsplash a lighter grey with oil based paint. A second coat followed two days later. After the second coat we gave the paint ten day to fully dry as we went on a vacation. Which was a good thing so we didn't have to be careful for a couple of days not to mess up the newly painted backsplash.
