Refinish Exterior Light Fixtures

Just head over to Home Depot or Lowe's and grab a can (or two) of Rust-Oleum (retail $3.98).  You don't need to buy the top-tier spray paint for this job.  The basic Rust-Oleum works great (see can below). Make sure the electricity is turned off and then detach fixture.  After cleaning (sanding optional), spray your fixture with a nice, even coat.  Allow drying time (1 hr +) and then reapply.  Fixtures will be good as new.



Here are some pics (before & after) of  some recent restoration.
