radiator colour

[psychogal]

My kitchen is maple units black gloss work surfaces and dark tiled floor. all my accesories are crome. My white radiators don't go. Can't afford new ones. Any ideas of how I can update. What would they look like painted silver?

psycho - What about a radiator cover? Or maybe its possible to put backless shelving in front of it with a few pots & pans or kitchen stuff?

u can buy special radiator paint,but its bland,for what it is plasticote them using plasticote spray paint,then seal them with plasticote sealer spray,DONT gloss yor rads because its refects heat back in,did mine bout 4 years ago,a few scuffs marks but still looks good
