If you don't want to sand anything down, you could use chalk paint, which goes right on usually with no sanding needed. Then finish it off with a good water based poly protector, especially for the table, to protect it.

  Thank you. I'm not averse to doing a little sanding if necessary, but like the sound of your suggestions. These items are currently in use in my shop but they need a new look, an upgrade. This method sounds straight forward and easier than I expected. Many thanks
