The first rose goes to 10, Design Master. If you want a warmer gold tone without being “rose-gold” then either 6 or 8 are perfect for you, as they lean every so slightly towards pink. Numbers 3, 9, and 10 are very true to a bright, brassy gold, and really you’re safe with any of those if you want a more classic finish. 7 and 11 are a bit more bronze and not enough metallic for my liking.ĭing, ding, ding, we have… 5 winners? The finish on all of these is gorgeous and the spray paint applied so consistently. However, the color is very true to gold and if you are looking for more of a shimmery finish than this could be for you. It’s almost as if it has flecks of metallic in it and really doesn’t match it’s “vintage gold” name. The finish reminded my of my dad’s taurus growing up. We’ll call this next group the sparkle group. She’s perfectly sparkly and metallic while the others look more flat and beige-y. The first group–should we call this the bronze group? I don’t know if I would refer to these as “gold.” 2 and 4 are labeled “champagne” so that much was expected, but I was surprised at 5 and 12 being labeled “metallic gold” and “antique brass.” However, if you ARE wanting more of a champagne color, then 12 is the obvious winner in my opinion. Sorting them into similar categories gave us a bit more clarity on our favorites. The knobs were leaning towards all kinds of colors: pinks, greens, yellows. The obvious conclusion? No two spray paints are the same.
Once we numbered the bottom of each spray paint and knob we drilled holes in a sheet of wood and attached the knobs for easy of spraying.ġ | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12Įach knob got a few coats of their spray paint buddy and in no time we were in gold hardware heaven…okay, some weren’t great at ALL though. We bought 12 cans of spray paint and 12 knobs (I know, we go all out), and got started right away. Luckily, this was a fun little experiment and we’re so excited to share with you our top favorite gold spray paints…again.
One of our most popular blog posts to date (like…ever) was when we tested to find the best gold spray paint and it was due for an update because the pictures aren’t great and we (I) only tested 4 spray paints.
