DIRECTIONS:

NOTE: Old and antique furniture may have used lead-based paints or oils. If in doubt, buy a test kit at a local hardware store to test.
If possible, work outside over a drop cloth for easy clean up.
  1. Lightly sand the entire surface of the piece of furniture.
  2. Once it is sanded, wipe it down with a rag and acetone to get off any oily surface grime.
  3. Set furniture in a well-ventilated area without wind.
  4. Spray the first coat of paint lightly on the entire surface. Apply many coats of spray paint. Let it dry between coats.
  5. To make sure all areas are covered, spray from different directions and angles. To get even coats, make smooth passes while you spray paint.
