  • Carefully inspect the furniture you want to restore for minor damage. If necessary, repair or replace installed mechanisms: locks, handles, hinges. Old peeled paint particles should be removed. Remove the doors, remove the drawers and release the handles and latches from the outside.
  • Sand the surface (glossy and dull) with fine-grained sandpaper. It is this skin that leaves no deep scratches that are hard to close with a base color or color. For simplicity, you can use the mill.
  • First you have to cover the surface of the furniture with a primer, then cover with a putty the problem areas. This ensures a good membership. Degrease the surface with vodka or alcohol as they will not leave slippery films.

3. What painting to paint furniture?.

Furniture
Various types of materials that can be used to paint furniture
In order to select the appropriate means of painting the furniture, you must pay attention to the material from which these pieces of furniture are made. You can not only use color. There are many special paints that not only give the surface a spectacular look, but also protect it from dirt, moisture and pests.

The paints that are now used for painting are the following types:
  •     Alcoholic;
  •     epoxy;
  •     alkyd
  •     Nitrocellulose;
  •     oily;
  •     polyurethane

Unlike paint, paint creates a harder and more durable surface. However, if you decide which color a piece of furniture should paint, select a selection below.



* Acrylic paints are traditionally used under furniture colors. They are stronger than others, fast drying, easy to use and suitable for the kitchen or nursery. In addition, acrylic paints have a less pronounced odor and can be easily diluted with water to save material.
* Potted acrylic paints simplify and facilitate your work enormously. This paint falls lightly and smoothly on the surface and dries faster than normal, applied with a brush or roller.
* Lacquered enamel paints applied to the wood add shine and shine to the surface. If you want a matte effect, the oil paintings will help you.
* Transparent colors help you to preserve the natural structure of the wood surface. The range of gamma is very wide and the consistency allows you to mix different tones, so you always have the opportunity to choose the color in which the furniture will be painted.

4. Color furniture with your own hands (eg a wooden cupboard).

Furniture
Choose colors that match your furniture
You probably have furniture at home that you want to update. In most cases, these are kitchen cabinets, as they are particularly affected by moisture and mechanical stress.
Take the example of a kitchen cabinet of this kind to paint with your own hands. You will see that painting old furniture at home is pretty easy.

Keep in mind that buying unfinished kitchen cabinets is likely to be birch furniture. This wood has a fine grain structure and the dyeing seems to be very good. For example, if you add a cherry stain, you can easily get the color of the cherry.

Step 1: Sand the tree. This is an important step in the preparation. Take a 120 grit sandpaper and lightly sand the wood in the direction of the texture so as not to scratch the surface. With a 220 grit sandpaper, sand again to remove minor scratches and leave the surface smooth.

Step 2: Apply the impregnation to wood. Clean the surface dust thoroughly beforehand. The applied impregnation layer serves as a seal and contributes to a more uniform coloration. Allow the impregnation to dry completely.

Step 3: Apply the stain. It is best to apply it with a brush in a circular motion so that the tool rubs on the texture of the wood. Take the last step in the direction of the wood structure so that the final finish is uniform.

Step 4: Surface treatment with a coat of paint. The color itself does not protect the wood from the negative effects of moisture, pests and dehydration. Study the composition carefully. In some cases, you need to use additional funds as a protective layer.

5. How do you paint antique furniture?.

Furniture
Some parts of old furniture can be painted in different colors
You probably have a lot of old furniture, which is too bad, and there is no room to put it. She collects dust in the fields, in the garage, in the barn. And many of these furniture are chipboard, a very practical material, light and economical. You can give them a new life by simply painting them in a different color and freshening the coating. In addition, the reconstruction significantly enhances the surface by painting, which is subject to various types of damage due to its technical properties.

Before painting chipboard furniture, they must be prepared carefully. There are two ways to clean the surface:
Chemical Method Special chemicals are required to remove the previous coating. It is necessary to select these means according to the type of the last cover. Always wear gloves when working.
Heating mode In this case, the treatment is performed with hot air or steam. This requires a building dryer. Aim it on the surface and hold it until a paint or varnish has softened, so you can easily remove it with a scraper.

After cleaning, the surface should be sanded and rubbed with sandpaper.

To paint old chipboard furniture, it is easiest to use acrylic paint in pots. You can do it faster and the surface layer will be flat and even. Oil or alkyd paints may also be a good option.
Tip: If you use brushes to paint furniture, you should buy new ones. Notice how the bristles stay firm. If the hair begins to fall during work, the quality of the coating is severely impaired.

6. Interesting interior solutions (which color should the furniture paint)?.

Furniture
Antique decor and furniture will add to the beauty of the room
As you know, antique furniture is painted not only for the update but also for the interior decoration. The fashion trends in home design can also be well combined with the old Soviet wall if you work a little bit on it.

This wall is enough to repaint using the instructions in our article and to play with the location of its elements.
The most important thing is to determine the design style of the interior in advance. And even the classic Romanian wall of the 80s, boring and outdated, can become part of a fully functioning and multi-level space, not just in a piece of furniture.

In the pictures below you can see examples of how you can place the old wall according to the new, trendy design movements. Notice how the new color of furniture and furniture matches the color of the walls of the room.

7. What should be considered? Useful tips.

Furniture
The correct painting will give the furniture a new look

As with any paint on furniture, there are secrets. Not only do they help you get through the process faster, they also save you money and ensure perfect performance.
  • Choose materials (primer, filler, paint, paint) from a manufacturer. In this case, it is guaranteed that they are compatible with each other. Often the manufacturer develops coatings for specific surfaces depending on the conditions of use. This facilitates the selection of the best material.
  • Do not be afraid to play with colors. By properly selected colors, the space is visually enlarged. The contrast between the colors of the furniture and the walls creates a unique style in the room, no matter in which direction.
  • Before starting work, make sure you get one roll and several brushes of different thicknesses. The use of a roller facilitates the painting of large areas, and for the finish of the furniture and fitting ends brushes are required.
  • Use adhesive tape. This helps to protect already painted and dried surfaces from entering the paint. The use of the solvent in such cases is not very practical as it would damage the lacquer layer. The masking tape prevents you from making such mistakes.
  • Wear a mask while painting or ventilate the room! Although most modern paint materials are non-toxic and do not emit strong odors, caution is not superfluous.
