How to Repair an Iron Railing
More in Outdoors
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Step 1: Smooth the Surface
Use a metal grinder to smooth the surface. (Be sure to wear eye protection because a grinder sends shards flying all over.)
Step 2: Apply the Patch
Next, patch the railing with a two-part bonding agent. Use 24-gauge wire to hold the railing together while the patch dries.
Step 3: Spray Paint the Railing
Apply a textured spray paint to camouflage some of the rough areas. The finished railing greatly enhances the look of the house.
