Dining Table And Chairs
I want to re-paint my Dining room table legs and chairs. What kind of paint should I use?
The table has a wood top with green legs/base and green chairs with a cream colored seat cushion. I want to paint it black to go with the new mirror I just bought for the wall. What type of paint do I use on wood furniture?
I would definitely recommend priming it. you should use a latex primer sealer designed to stick to glossy surfaces. then paint with a latex interior paint in the finish of your choice. i would suggest a semi-gloss to give you a better/more durable finish. i would not suggest using an oil, as they are getting to be very expensive, and a lot a regions will be forced by the EPA to stop selling in the next couple years. also, try to get a premixed black. don’t let the paint store tint it black. if the store you go to doesn’t have black already on the shelf, go to another store. if they mix it, the paint wont do as well. i would apply a couple coats of paint and not coat with a lacquer/varnish. these types of product WILL YELLOW over time. they get more yellow, and cloudy as time goes by. if you MUST clear coat, use a latex polyurethane. it will stay completely clear.
I would suggest:
Primer:Benjamin Moore Fresh start All purpose primer 023-00
finish: Benjamin Moore Ironclad Latex Metal & Wood Enamel 363-80
Clear(if you must):Benjamin Moore Stays Clear LAtex Polyurethane
