How to Paint Broyhill Fontana Furniture
- 1). Pour 1/3 cup all-purpose wood cleaner and 1 gallon water into a bucket. Dip a sponge in the bucket and wring it out. Wipe down the wood furniture, removing dust and grease. Give it an hour or so to air dry.
- 2). Place a piece of 80-grit sandpaper at the bottom of an electric sander. Run the sander across the surface area of each piece of Broyhill Fontana furniture. This sandpaper will remove the finish. Repeat with 200-grit sandpaper and then 400-grit sandpaper.
- 3). Wipe off the dust from sanding with a tack cloth. Dip a 3-inch brush into an oil-based primer and coat each piece of furniture with a light coat. Give it four hours to dry.
- 4). Dip a 3-inch brush into an oil-based paint and cover each piece of furniture with a light coat of paint. Allow the paint to dry for 24 hours before applying a second coat.
- 5). Apply a light coat of clear polyurethane onto the each piece of furniture when finished. This will prevent the paint from scratching and chipping.
