Paint tin celing tile to give it an antique look. Clean the tiles using a sponge dampened with dish soap and water. Dry with paper towels or a microfiber cloth. Apply a bonding primer to the tin tile. If your base color will be white or a light color, use white primer; if your base will be dark, use a dark-colored primer. Allow the primer to dry overnight, or as the manufacturer directs. Paint the tin ceiling tile in the base color.
By starting with a finished tile, you can also choose an acrylic-based paint as a top coat, otherwise stick with an oil-based paint and primer (unless you are have stainless steel gloss or brushed satin nickel finishes). For either type of tile, you never want to use a latex-based paint. Brush the tin in crisscrossing overlapping strokes, the more random the better. The amount of coats and paint mixtures vary by tile type so it is recommended to read our painting section for more information.
