Colour Changes Everything: In-House Spray Finishing for Lighting
Colour Changes Everything: In-House Spray Finishing for Lighting
Lighting isn’t just functional. It’s emotional. It sets tone, creates atmosphere, and quietly defines a space.
But here’s the truth most people overlook:
The colour of a fitting can completely transform how it’s perceived.
And that’s where we come in.
From Standard to Standout
Most lighting products are manufactured in safe finishes — black, white, brass, maybe chrome. They’re versatile. Commercial. Predictable.
But what if the space calls for something more?
What if the scheme demands burnt orange instead of matte black?
What if the design needs aged copper with verdigris rather than factory-polished brass?
We paint and colourise lighting in-house, offering professional spray finishes for:
-
Lighting manufacturers
-
Interior designers
-
Architects
-
Retail and hospitality projects
-
Private clients wanting something bespoke
Whether you’re refreshing existing stock or transforming a one-off statement piece, we can reimagine the finish entirely.
Case Study: Bold Burnt Orange
There’s something unapologetically confident about a strong colour choice.
A classic layered pendant in burnt orange becomes sculptural. It feels intentional. Designed. Memorable.
Instead of blending in, it anchors the room.
This isn’t just “painting a light” — it’s redefining its personality.

Case Study: Aged Copper with Verdigris
On the opposite end of the spectrum, we’ve colourised industrial pendants in a hand-finished aged copper verdigris effect.
The result? Depth. Texture. Character.
It looks lived-in. Historic. As though it’s always belonged in the space.
Perfect for hospitality settings, boutique interiors, or projects that need warmth and authenticity.
Why Spray Finish Instead of Replace?
Interior designers and lighting companies are increasingly choosing to recolour rather than replace. Here’s why:
1. Cost Efficiency
Reworking existing fittings is often significantly more cost-effective than sourcing new bespoke pieces.
2. Sustainability
Extending the life of a product reduces waste and avoids unnecessary manufacturing.
3. Creative Freedom
You’re no longer restricted to catalogue finishes. If you can specify a colour, we can spray it.
4. Brand Identity
For lighting companies, custom finishes allow you to offer something unique without retooling or redesigning the product.
Our Process
Everything is done in-house, giving us full control over:
-
Surface preparation
-
Priming and adhesion systems
-
Custom colour matching
-
Specialist finishes and patinas
-
Protective top coats for durability
We work with metal, prepared surfaces, and a range of lighting components — ensuring the final finish is both beautiful and robust.
Designed to Fit the Space
Lighting should never feel like an afterthought.
When colour is considered as carefully as form, a standard fitting becomes a design feature.
If you’re a lighting brand looking to expand your finish options, or an interior designer wanting to transform existing pieces to suit a scheme — we’d love to collaborate.
Because sometimes the difference between ordinary and extraordinary… is just the right finish.
