What kind of paint should I use?

[songbirdtiff]

I'm going to be painting my kitchen table (the base) and chairs. Should I use spray paint or paint and a brush? The chairs are currently spray painted white with flat spray paint so priming shouldn't be an issue. What would you do?

Don't use a brush!!! I learned this the hard way. All those spindles and rungs are such a pain with a brush. Plus it's nearly impossible to get rid of the brush marks.

For kitchen chairs, I would wash them very well then prime with a spray primer. Then I'd just spray paint them with whatever color I was using.

I will definitely post pictures. I can't wait to get it done, but I'll probably have to wait until this weekend to get started.

what color are you painting them?

[songbirdtiff]

I am refinishing the top of the table, painting the sides and legs black and painting the chairs black.
