7:00am Off to Home Depot need more supplys before I start.
9:00am arrive home and put all furniture I plan to paint out on driveway . Then remove all hardware and clean insides of all pieces.
Next, is the sanding, and a lot of it. When sanding is completed, all pieces have to be wiped down and cleaned really good in preparation for the paint. There can't be any sand dust or dirt on the furniture, or the paint finish will not be smooth.
In my garage I have set up an area where all my tools,paints and everything I need is at my disposal. I always make sure I have all I will need before I start.
Like the mask, used when , I feel it is needed , due to lead paint or the wind in my direction.
I have many of these clamps. I always make every piece of furniture that I re-do is repaired and in house ready condition. I only put items in my shop that I would put in my own house. Below you will see the result of a really long day.
Well it is almost 6:00pm and 4 of the stages to completion have been done. Tomorrow is another day and I will finish what I started. OH, by the way, below, this is what happens when you wear flip flops when you paint. Sometimes the personal clean up takes longer then the work clean up.
