I purchased yet another outdated orange stained pedestal dining table that needed TLC.
When you work alone and need an assistant you have to think outside the box ;0) The leg is longer then an arm right?
After a good scrub, power sand to smooth the surface and a wipe down it was time to paint.
Two coats of the dark grey milk paint applied with my
angled sash Zibra brush, which cut easily into the corners gave the table a gorgeous new look.
But I did not stop here, a light sanding to take down the milk paint to a smooth buttery soft surface
then apply
Fusion Mineral Paint discontinued antiquing tough coat. It is just like their clear tough coat but as you can see, tinted with brown. This added warmth to the cool grey tone of the milk paint as well as providing a layer of sealed durability.
To add even more interest and dimension,
Fusion Mineral Paint's clear glaze mixed with their coal black paint was brushed in the nooks and crannies on the pedestal, table apron and across the top.
On the top I added more layers of color using the dark grey milk paint and dry brushing it across.
Everything was lightly sponge sanded and another coat of the antiquing tough coat applied all over then a clear coat on the top and the dining table was completely transformed.
