Instructions

  1. Roughly sand piece to remove factory polyurethane finish and then prime.  

  2. Paint table top with Turquoise and the rest with Pure Black  - about 2 coats. 

  3. Allow to dry and then distress edges with 80 grit sandpaper. 

  4. Mix black paint with water (4 parts paint to one part water) and using soft rag, wipe over turquoise color to “glaze” and  accent.  Feel free to use more than one “coat” on this step to add glaze to your taste.

  5. Finish with a coat of Spray Sealer.
