Ceramic painting on plywood.

Let the paint dry. If you are painting plywood to use it as a surface in your home such as a painted plywood floor you will need a more heavy duty paint.

If there are rough edges exposed rub a little drywall compound into the edges to make a smooth even surface for painting.

Sand your plywood surface removing any rough spots. Apply the paint evenly. Sanding the wood before you begin will help to eliminate any snags that will come up after the initial painting. Sand the plywood with 120 or 150 grit sandpaper to help the first coat.

Work in small areas about 2 feet square. See more ideas about painting plywood painted floors flooring.

While tile can be laid on plywood do not install tile directly onto the plywood subfloor itself.

Wet the roller in the paint and apply it to the plywood always rolling in the direction of the wood grain. Instead of leaving a painted plywood subfloor plain jazz up your paint job a bit with a few decorative elements. Use intervening layers of two sheets of plywood. Most tiles are approved for installation over solid plywood floors but before you can spread the thinset and lay the tiles you have to prepare the plywood to make sure it is compatible with the adhesive.

Decorative images spice up the look of the floor and bring in some color contrast.
