The Best Home Appliance Repair Tips To Make The Most Of Your Projects


Western Appliance by Work Hard, Play Hard!


Repainting is an inexpensive way to modernize a dated appliance or to coordinate the colors of your appliances with your kitchen's color scheme. It is a relatively easy process. Here's how to use appliance paint to give your kitchen or laundry room appliances a new look.

1. Choose the right paint. Be sure to purchase appliance paint especially formulated to paint household appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines, microwaves, and dishwashers. These paints are not for use on or near surfaces that get hot, such as stove tops. For those surfaces, be sure to purchase a heat-resistant paint. Also there are specialty appliance paints for resurfacing the inside of a microwave.

Appliance paint comes in brush-on and spray-on versions. Spray-on paint is best if you are planning to repaint the entire appliance, while brush-on paint is preferable it you are touching up chips or dents.

At the same time you purchase your paint, buy any other equipment you will need such as spray paint applicators, brushes, tarps, masking tape. And don't forget safety equipment, such as gloves, masks and goggles. You can purchase appliance paint at most hardware or home improvement stores.

2. Read the instructions for the appliance paint you've chosen carefully before starting your project.

3. Unplug the appliance and move it to a well-ventilated area. A garage or outdoors is ideal, but if you have to paint the appliance indoors, be sure that it is in an area where you can open windows or doors. Wherever you plan to paint it, there should be plenty of room around the appliance so that you can move freely and easily access all surfaces. Place the appliance on a tarp or on newspaper to protect the floor.

4. Clean all appliance surfaces well with soap and water to remove dirt, grease and dust. If there is any rust on the surface, remove it and treat the area with a rust deterrent product. Be sure the appliance is completely dry before you start to paint.

5. Use masking tape to cover any parts of the appliance that you do not want to paint.

6. If you are using spray paint, apply the paint with a fluid, sweeping motion. You might start with a light mist of paint that barely covers the entire surface, followed by a second, even layer on top of this base. Let the paint dry thoroughly, then apply a second coat if desired.

If your appliance just needs a touch up not an entire facelift you can use appliance paint to cover scratches, chips or worn areas. The process is similar to painting the entire surface. Be sure to clean the area to be painted thoroughly, apply a thin layer of paint, let it dry thoroughly then paint again if necessary.

Improve Your Space With These Simple Home Appliance Repair Tips


Appliance Shopping by Taller Than You


Trying to purchase a new kitchen range can be a difficult task. The main reason for this is because there are so many various choices you are able to choose from, finding your perfect cooking range can be overwhelming. However, if you are looking for a cooking range that will provide you with amazing features as well as user-friendly functions, than I would suggest going with a Frigidaire appliance. Frigidaire has been manufacturing amazing appliances for many years, and throughout this time, they have learned exactly what makes a great appliance. The Frigidaire 30" Drop-In Electric Coil Range, Model: FED355 has all of the basic features that you expect from a great range, as well as several other features that are unique to this appliance.

Main Product Features:

The first feature that makes this cooking range worth your money is the overall functionality this appliance provides consumers. You will be able to easily control all of the various features and functions of this range through the upfront control panel. Unlike traditional cooking ranges, this range has placed its control panel at the front of the range. This will provide you with easier and safer controlling. You will no longer have to reach over boiling pans to adjust the temperature, which will save you from getting burned. If you are shorter than average than you will really appreciate the fact that the control panel is located on the very front of the range.

Another great feature are the various automatic control features. You are able to set this oven for a delay cook start, which is perfect when you have to go to work. Now you can place your dinner in the oven, and delay the cook time to start and then finish right when you get home from work. Now you don't have to cook a meal after a hard day at the office, it will be waiting for you when you get home.

You will also be able to enjoy the Dual Radiant Baking System, which will bake your foods in precise temperatures. This system will allow an even temperature to be controlled throughout the entire oven. There is also a six-pass Broiler within the oven, which will also provide you with an extremely even cooking temperature within the 4.2 cubic foot oven.

With four heating elements on the upper range, you will have the ability to easily cook several dishes at once. The only draw-back to this range that I found was the fact that the upper heating elements are coils instead of a flat-top. While this isn't the greatest surface to cook on, it will cut you costs within this kitchen range.

Product Price:

Consumers can find this kitchen range at any major appliance retailer, and you can expect to pay an average price of $650 for this appliance.
