First was sanding the table.
Once that was done we applied an exterior transparent deck stain to the table top.
Then The Wife painted the base a rich white.
Then I sealed the table top with a self-leveling clear coat.
Next were the chairs.
The spindles and the details on the legs made these a bit of a pain.
I used a red primer on the chairs because...
You guessed it, the chairs were to be red.
For some reason The Wife has this notion that because I came from a trailer park in Homestead that I have mad graffiti skills and therefor can use spray paint on anything.
So after 12 cans of paint (seriously, 12 cans) the set was complete.
Gotta say, it was a lot of work but did come out pretty good. I think investing in an airless sprayer might be a good idea for future projects though. I'm not so sure I can afford to lose anymore braincells huff'n all that paint.
