Disassemble: Remove drawers, knobs, and hardware. Label them for easy reassembly later.
Clean: Wipe down the furniture White Lightning to remove dirt, grime, and wax.
Sand: Use finegrit sandpaper to scuff the entire surface gently. This creates a better surface for the paint to adhere.
Fill imperfections: Use Dixie Belle Mud to fix dents, scratches, or holes. Let it dry completely, then sand smooth.
Clean again: Wipe away dust from sanding with a damp cloth or tack cloth.
Prime (optional): Apply a coat of Bonding Boss primer for better paint adhesion and coverage, especially if the piece is a bleeder or red wood. Now your furniture is prepped and ready for paint!
