Wash it down good and let it dry. Then buy or make your own chalk paint. Then paint it. No sanding or any other prep is needed! After you are done, you will need to apply some kind of urethane. You can get the kind now that does not yellow, so be sure to ask for that kind when you get it. Apply the urethane and let it dry completely. Chalk paint really is easy. If you want a home recipe to make your own chalk paint, let us know, it is cheaper to make.
