Havaianas Unisex Slide Classic Metallic Flip-Flop

Product Information

The most significant downside of metallic slides is that they get hot during summer, increasing the risk of heat-related injuries.

Paint the slide using even coats of spray paint, allowing it to completely dry between coats. I gave our slide three coats of spray paint for lasting durability. Fiberglass slides are also low maintenance. You don’t have to spend a lot of time cleaning or repainting them. All you have to do is clean them when they appear dirty, and that is it. First off you absolutely NEED to use this Universal Paint and Primer in One from Rustoleum. It covers any surface, from any angle and was perfect for this slide project. I used Metallic Titanium Silver and I love the matte finish that it gave our slide. So, what makes plastic slides such an attractive option for many people? Here are some of the top benefits of choosing plastic.

Some people think that steel is a little more upscale and attractive than plastic. Therefore, if your slide will be installed in a place where it will be highly visible, steel gives you the best option. Fiberglass slides have a relatively low lifetime cost. Even though the initial installation cost may be high, your fiberglass slide can serve you for long without the need for any repairs or expensive maintenance. Stainless steel slides are extremely strong and come in a wide range of sizes to suit different needs. You can easily get a metallic slide for young kids as well as adults. The strength of metallic slides makes them be used in unique ways such as wild slides. Metallic slides are usually made of stainless steel, making them sturdier and longer-lasting than those made of plastic and fiberglass. Abrasive blasting or sandblasting process is used to make the metal surface relatively smooth. Galvanized steel is used to construct posts and tubes used to provide support for the slide, making it stronger. Advantages of Metallic Slides

I am super pleased with how long the paint has lasted on this slide! The vinyl words that I put on it have started to peel off obviously but the paint has held up exceptionally well in the three years since I painted it. The only chipped paint is where water tends to pool on the slide at the bottom. For a long time, slides have been the most common used playground equipment favored by kids and adults. They are solid, sturdy, and come in different shapes, sizes, and colors. They are also made of different materials. It is also environmentally friendly which has a positive impact on our planet. Besides manufacturing playground slides, HDPE is also used to make a wide range of other products that we use every day. The kids have been using it for a few weeks now with no scratches or visible wear to the paint. We even added this Vinyl Slide Decal because making a statement is always fun! I will update you with how the paint lasts and any wear that we may have throughout the summer.

But it’s hard to make those colorful, loud, fun, bright plastic kid accessories blend into your design. Here’s how to paint a playground slide like we did… How to paint a playground slide:
