using tile paint

[moom]

I want to paint my bathroom with tile paint, any advice on using this stuff greatly appreciated, pros and cons. There is one area that is prone to condensation, will the paint lift here?

In my experience painted tiles usually look rubbish.

Yes, it will lift sooner or later.

Used it in our kitchen as a short term measure, at least I thought short term. Had disgusting poop brown (!) tiles and I painted em white just to tide us over until we got to fix the kitchen up. That was 2 years ago and they're fine! Paint hasn't lifted at all, even right next to the cooker & boiling water etc.

However, they do look absolutely terrible. Tile paint is pretty naff! It's thick, gloopy, shows every imperfection and you can't scrub em clean because the paint will come off. You get soap stain or hair dye etc on them and you won't be able to clean it off easily.
