Explore The Types Of Dining Table Sets To Decorate Your Room
Tables add character to our seating area, but it is not unexpected whether their paint is coming down or fading away. If something similar has happened to your dining table sets and you are thinking of replacing it with a new table? Then you need to stop! You don't have to throw away a completely good table nor do you need to spend a penny by a professional to repaint it. You can just do it yourself.
Below are the steps that you can follow to bring your room and bar to life by washing your wooden dining table at home only with white.
There is no need to sand the surface, if you want the bar to exit with a rustic and farmhouse experience, you will only need to install a primer before whitening. You can leave it if the surface of your table is solid and smooth and you want it to remain the same.
But if the surface of the wooden dining table sets has become rough with age, it is recommended to sand the surface first before applying anything else. It is up to you to use chalked paint or simple paint, you can use milk or house paint for a smooth look. So for the first step, you need to collect a paintbrush and acrylic paint, using a poisonous one to dilute the paint.
Use a container and pour water under the paint, the ratio should be 1/3 rd if you are using 2/3 paint. Start painting in the direction of the grain of boards. The tabletop has the same technique for all surfaces.
But do not paint in large strokes, paint small strokes and place a moist cloth in your hand and apply it on the paint surface before the paint dries up. Apply on the painted finish until it looks like a wash, you may have to repeat this process in some areas if you wipe a little too much and the paint goes off. Make sure your strokes are in one direction when you are wiping the color.
After the first coat is done, leave it on for a day or two and then apply another wax coat. You can also use matte finishing cream for final touch to seal the paint. Let the table dry, set and fix, and then decorate the popping colors on top for beauty appeal.
