Step 1
Prep
Remove hardware and store in a safe place. Scuff-sand to remove any loose paint and debris then thoroughly clean and allow to dry.
Step 2
Apply Paint
Set up outside or in a well-ventilated area. Cover the floor and any areas around you that you do not want spray paint on.
Shake can vigorously for 1 minute. Hold can about 12” from area being painted. While spraying move can from side to side across the area. Let dry at least 1 hour before applying a second coat. Two to three thin coats produce the best results.
Apply Accent Color
For the metallic accent, apply tape 5” from the bottom of each leg. Apply spray paint using the same method.
Tip: Shake often during use.
Step 3
Apply Wax and Finishes
Apply BEHR PREMIUM™ Decorative Wax over the chalk spray paint only using a clean rag to seal and protect your surface.
For the knobs, we sprayed with Antique Copper. Let dry before you re-attach.
Tip: A little wax goes a long way.
