Hello, everyone! It’s Do Dodson from Do Dodson Designs here!

Materials List:

• Drop Cloth
• Dust Mask
• Krud Cutter
• Scrubber Pad
• Paper Towels
• Sanding Blocks
• Primer
• Continuous Fine Mist Spray Bottle
• Drop Cloth Chalk Mineral Paint
• Mini Angle 2-inch Synthetic brush

How To:

Step 1:

First, clean the furniture thoroughly. Make sure to wipe off any rust, dirt and grime from previous paint if applicable.

Step 2:

Then, sand the rusty spots or rough patches with a sanding block. After sanding, wipe away with a moistened cloth.

Step 3:

After that, apply primer before painting to ensure the paint will adhere to the metal surface.

Step 4:

Next, to eliminate any brush strokes visible on the surface, use spray bottle to smooth as you add thin coats of paint.

Step 6:

In addition, feel free to add any special touches! I personally added a water-based gel stain to areas that would’ve normally chipped paint over time.

Step 7:

Furthermore, I applied Dixie Belle’s Best Dang Wax over the wood and paint with a large wax brush in a circular motion. You can use a cotton cloth to buff the wax to a satin finish as well.
