And the spray paint job can be fun too. 1) Wear a paint mask 2) Wear a pair of disposable plastic gloves 3) Use a great spray paint and follow the temperature range listed on the can ... each brand varies a bit. 4) Clean the surface at least a day before you plan to spray to ensure the surface is dry. <br /><br />Everyone has their own fav paint; I only use Rust-Oleum UNIVERSAL Paint & Primer In One, Any Surface, Any Angle paint. The can will spray upside down if you have to get under an object and it always produces such a fine mist that it is like an airbrush. The Gloss has a great sheen and the Matte is gorgeous if you want a retro vibe. Little more expensive than other brands ... worth it.<br /><br />Have a wonderful holiday weekend.<br /><br />Robin @ happilyhomeafter.blogspot.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1716994764183858296.post-52629270117216164672012-08-31T09:23:03.480-07:002012-08-31T09:23:03.480-07:00I desperately want to thrift with you.

As for the spray painting..here are my few tips. (I just posted a vase I spray painted if you want to check out my work before you take my advice.) First and foremost...do not spray paint when it's humid. You should spray about 6-8" away from where what you are painting. Next...start by holding the spray button down and spray just to the side of what you are spraying, moving slowly across what you are painting so that you are not starting or ending directly on the project. Last, but maybe should have been first...get good spray paint. I like Valspar you can get it from Lowe's. That's all I got. Good luck!Danni@SiloHillFarmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13220897952708626415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1716994764183858296.post-34564847969162171652012-08-31T08:15:57.881-07:002012-08-31T08:15:57.881-07:00I love your finds!
