{Don’t mind my shadow, or the crazy amounts of tiny scratches on my fridge. Note to those that plan on buying a black shiny fridge, they will scratch with anything that touches them.}
Spray your letters with primer, let it dry. Then spray a coat of the Valspar “brilliant metal”. Let it dry really well. When it’s dried completely you will have amazing new magnets that won’t clash with your kitchen decor. And the kids will still have fun playing with them. And hopefully you won’t have a monsoon storm blow through and blow your letters all over the yard!

I’m such an idiot. Would you believe that I found this page because i’ve been searching to buy a set of metal ones for ages and haven’t been able to find them!
I CANNOT believe I didn’t think to paint them!!
I’ve brought five sets of colourful ones off Ebay to paint now so we can write entire sentences on our fridge!
