Product Information

Give it a thorough stir. If you’re going for a dramatic colour change, use a shade of primer similar to the topcoat. For example, if you’re covering a dark blue with yellow, use a white primer. If you’re covering yellow with a dark blue, use a grey primer. If you want a two-tone look, paint one color as the first coat and let it dry. After that, apply more wax and then paint a different color for the second coat. The topcoat will come off in places to give a worn look and show the under-color. Step 4 - Distress the Surface

The way to achieve this aesthetic with furniture is to apply two layers of paint of different colours, then to gently set to work with fine-grain sandpaper. With this in mind, you might want to look for paint with a faster drying time. What about colours?Give your little princess a royal bunk-bed or your animal loving boy an alligator green toy chest.
