  1. Remove mailbox from post.

  2. MAILBOX:

    • Wrap mailbox flag with painters tape to protect it from the paint.
    • Using an all-purpose cleaner, thoroughly clean the mailbox to remove dirt, oils and dust. Rinse thoroughly with water and allow mailbox to dry.
    • If paint or rust is flaking off the surface, use a wire brush or sandpaper to remove it. Wipe clean.
    • Applying in a well-ventilated area, hold can of Krylon® Fusion All-In-One® in Gloss Hunter Green 6-8 inches from the surface and paint using a sweeping side-to-side motion with slight overlap.
    • Allow paint to dry for 30-60 seconds.
    • Continue to apply light, multiple coats, waiting 30-60 seconds between each, until you are satisfied with the appearance.
    • Make sure the mailbox is completely dry before you remove the painters tape from the flag.
