Clean with TSP than sand off sheen. Thin your white oil based paint with paint thinner, brush on, wipe off. If don't like how thick it is or thin, just wash off with paint thinner before it sets. Oil based paint sticks better to finished wood furniture, latex chips easier. When finished add a ciate of oil based poly.
