Instructions

    • 1

      Sand the entire surface of the stake mount sign using fine-grit sandpaper to remove any old paint and to prepare the surface for new paint.

    • 2

      Wipe away any excess sawdust with a soft cloth.

    • 3

      Paint the stake mount sign using acrylic paint. If you wish to make the entire sign a solid color, you can use spray paint for an easy and even application. More precise details can be added using paintbrushes to create the design or phrase of your choice. If you aren't confident in your freehand skills, you can use stencils to help transfer the design of your choice. Allow the paint to dry completely.

      Apply a coat of sealer to the stake mount sign to protect the paint from getting chipped or damaged. Allow the sealer to dry completely before hanging the sign on the wall.
