If you remember, I worte 2 weeks ago ,we were start to painting our one of client who was collector of antique furnitures,,This End Table is one of them
My husband sanded the top down 85 degree weather!!!!!!And he was needed to finished in that weather cause we hadn't no time to catch up to finish other in our hands..


also took off some of the broken piece at the buttom self and legs..There is too many broken and crackle


parts to fix....After finished these works he stripped top of table...
I continiued to paint again but after fist coat we realized the invisible crackles,and we filled up all them,,,,
After 20 minutes dry I sanded and applied 2nd & 3rd coats to all body and top..
As usually after chalky ı wait for 1 night for deep absorbed....than I applied distress, and put clear wax...after 3 hours I applied walnut Cream wax very slightly,,
Now the time is getting a little shiney,,,I do all the time with dry cloth.....This is my way to shine chalky furnitures....
I hope you like what I shared ,,this furnitures was an amazing piece and we painted as our client wanted,,,,Happy days to all you guys..............
