A fresh coat of paint and new hardware will turn an old desk into something amazing. This light, blush pink is the new neutral and will go with all of your existing colors. Try your hand at spray painting a desk and you'll find it's an easy way to update a piece of outdated furniture.
PREPARE: Always work in a well-ventilated area and cover the floor with a drop cloth to protect it from overspray. Remove all old hardware.
PAINT: Shake the spray paint in Pink Peony for one minute after the mixing ball begins to rattle. Then, hold the can 8-12” away from the chair and spray in a steady back-and-forth motion. Apply 2-3 light coats to the entire chair a few minutes apart.
FINISH: Let everything dry completely for 24 hours and install new hardware.
TIP: Use of a primer & topcoat provides added protection and longer-lasting color. We recommend 2X Ultra Cover Primer in White and Clear Topcoat.
