REQUIRED - The paint, yes, but which one? For ceilings and walls of bathrooms and kitchens usually uses breathable paint, to other premises, however, a washable. The breathable paint is cheaper: to paint a room that calculates the average serving size from 6 to 8 liters of product. Tools: roller synthetic bristles on the extender to achieve the highest points, flat brush to paint the corners, filler, sandpaper, masking tape, nylon sheets and Vachetta to pour the paint with a wire gauze to remove the color in excess from the roller. If you have any questions, please contact a paint dealer, or a point of sale of specialized chains such as Castorama or Obi.

PREPARE THE ROOM - First it is good to gather in the center of the room the furniture and cover with nylon sheets, fixing them with adhesive tape. Other sheets will be used to cover the rest of the floor. The same must be done by covering with tape sockets, fixtures and any other point of the room do not want to whitewash. All this, of course, to avoid long and exhausting work of final cleaning.
IMPORTANT: Choose the right colors
PREPARE THE WALLS - To get a good result in the application of color need the walls of the house have a completely smooth surface. The old walls usually have one or more layers of old paint. In this case, one can proceed with painting only if there are no pieces of surface that detach. If, however, the wall has some imperfections, you have to pass on the entire area of the sanding paper.
GUIDE: how to prepare the walls
THE RIGHT AMOUNT '- Prepare the color by yourself, using the dyes on a base of white paint, ensures a good saving but also the risk of being wrong. In fact, if not the right amount of calculations good product risks, redoing, not to get more equal. For this reason, we advise you to choose the color you want and tell you preparation by an expert. In assessing the amount needed, remember not to calculate the surface area of windows and doors, and are necessary an average of two mni of paint.

I've never heard of a 3-piece 4"
Widespread bathroom sink faucet. Not impossible, but must be impractical regarding cleaning and care. I didn't look up model #'s but seems fairly easy to connect valves to spout w/same size tubing of any length. Many times std 7/16" chrome plated brass supply tubing works using original nuts and ferruls and possibly bent w/bending tools to fit like some upper-end 3 piece faucets are designed. 7/16" supply tubing above is also std pro supply tubing from angle stop to valves properly bent and beaded w/captive washer and nut each end so nuts can't possibly be pulled off ends of tubing. Plastic or extremely thin corrugated brass supply tubing is crap in my opinion

They are nice real brass fixtures but damaged from incorrect cleaning products over the years. I would like to update my master bathroom but buying 2 new sink fixtures plus shower and tub is not in my budget! Thanks!
Paint is a bad idea. you might consider having them re-plated or use some stripper to remove all of the old finish (most brass is coated with lacquer) polish them up and recoat them with lacquer.
