These freebees from garbage night sure paid off!   Fold up metal chairs with white vinyl seats can fit basically anywhere...in a shed or garage for winter storage!  I lightly wiped them down with a degreaser, allowed them to dry.  Decided on Painter's Touch 2X French Lilac!   I covered the vinyl seats - later to discover that I was going to freshen them up with Rust-Oleum's Vinyl Spray in White.  Two light coats of the French Lilac gave these rusted old chairs new life!  I removed the seats and layed them on cardboard - sprayed them with the white vinyl and gave them a bright new look.  Rust-Oleum's Vinyl spray is made with actual vinyl paint resins making it as flexible as the vinyl being painted.  The seats look brand new.   One can of each paint was plenty. For added protection I added the Stops Rust Crystal Clear finish.   For under $30 I have two new colorful chairs to deck out my patio, dining room or family room!  Enjoy!
