Press back chairs are a favorite of mine and apparently quite a few others too. After I posted a pair I did last year that came in for a refresh moving from outside on the deck to inside, a customer messaged hoping they were for sale. Luckily I had one set left unpainted that I could do in the exact same color,
Fusion Mineral paints coal black.
Once scrubbed clean they were ready to go, two coats of coal black covered for a perfect solid classic black.
To add durability to them as they will be part of a family dining table, I applied 2 coats of
Fusion's hemp oil wood finish. It also adds a slight sheen to the black and enriches the deep color even more.
The
cedar lined armoire in the background is done in Homestead House (Fusion's parent company) milk paint midnight blue with coal black stenciled on the sides and sealed with the same
hemp oil.
