This was how I Found the piece at goodwill.
It had that plastic type of coating on the top with the fake grain on the doors. Even though underneath is wood for some reason in the 70's and 80's they thought it looked better to put this fake veneer on top of it. But just like anything Styles change and this piece was looking for a NEW STYLE.

It’s Themed Furniture Makeover Day! This month’s theme is Two Toned.
I sanded the top down the best I could to get a good contact with the plastic coating for my paint.
I was going Two Tone for the project so I wanted to do the legs the same as the top.
While the top and bottom were drying,
I used clear wax on the whole piece.
I just love how it changed the whole look of the piece.
Enjoyed the project?

Gail Daigh on Jan 29, 2015Maybe it's just the camera or whatever, but in both of your pieces the paint looks uneven, with some areas looking lighter than others. Do they look like that in person?
