Disadvantages of Painting Garden Tiles

Conclusion: You Can Paint Garden Tiles, But Results May Vary
Painting garden tiles is possible, but it’s a temporary solution. It needs to be done the right way, using proper preparation and the correct type of paint. It’s best to get advice from a paint store or hardware shop about what works best for your specific type of tile.
Before redoing your entire terrace, try it out on one tile first — for example, one you have left over or in an area that’s less visible. That way, you can see how the paint holds up to weather and foot traffic.
