Kids have painted ,glued and played on it so it was looking rather used and messy. The table is solid so I didn't want to get rid of it and buy a new one, why waste money if there is paint..
So here is what I did.:
I washed the table down and scrubbed it as much possible, I let it dry and them used a primer and painted it on. After it dried I used a glossy spray paint and sprayed it, let it dry for a couple of hours and then sprayed it again.
Make sure you do this outside and put a mask over your nose and mouth, I got mild toxic poisoning once trying to spray my bamboo chairs once and it wasn't pleasant to say the least:-)
So that was it a short post I hope you enjoyed it , I wish you all a happy positive healthy day!!!!

How is the paint holding up? We were thinking of doing the same thing.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to ask you the same thing than Lisanne
ReplyDeleteIt's holding up really well , only a little bit at the bottom came off but on the whole the table looks good . My little one uses this table a lot to paint , write and play . You can't even tell I painted it .. Thanks for your interest . :-) Julie and Lisanne ..
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of primer and spray paint for plastics? Would you mind sharing the brands of paint you used? Thank you! Looks great
