Apply Primer Coat

thing. These are oil based spray cans. It's a good idea to actually, you know, wear a mask when you're doing it, but in order to make the video, I can't talk, so I'm not wearing a mask. So now I'm going to begin spraying the primer on. And you just want a nice thin coat over it. Doesn't have to be heavy. And just, you know, use some nice good trigger control so you don't get any runs on there. So you're just pressing and releasing. Just using nice fast motions. I continue spraying this. And I'm got to be careful because I also want to be painting the bottom side of this and get my primer, you know, everywhere. So, I'm going to flip it upside down and prime the bottom, too. These spray cans are a nice convenient, easy way and quick way to paint a piece of furniture. You can actually I typically paint most my furniture with an all surface enamel and using an airless sprayer. I do have videos on that. And you're going to get a lot thicker and more durable finish if you use a product like that that's more designed for furniture versus using spray cans. Spray cans give you a real thin finish and it looks nice, but it's not as high quality and durable as say an all surface enamel coming out of a uh a whole gallon that we purchased from the paint store. But on little simple little projects like this, you know, spray can's going to be just fine. Now I got this thing almost all primed. Flip it back over. Just check for any missed spots. Now got this thing all done. And depending on the spray can you use, definitely want to read the spray can, look at the dry times, and go by the recommended dry time before you top coating it. I'm going to give this thing ample time to dry. Let this dry about 30 minutes. And then I'll begin top coating it with my top coats. I'll be spraying two colors. The seats going to be one color and the legs will be another color.
