Updated the fireplace doors from bronze 1980's with Abbey all in one paint. Also painted the side vents of the fireplace where the fans are for the blowers. Cleaned the fireplace before I painted it with the deglosser/degreaser cleaner. After painting 2 coats we changed the handles on the doors. We think this has made a change for the better. With the lights over the Fireplace on it has a brown tone and with the lights off it looks more grey. Now the fireplace matches the side blower vents. This project took me less than 3 hours.

Before 1980's Bronze/ gold with very old style handles. Side vents for blowers are odd matching. Going to paint the vents to match the Fireplace surround.
