Before you get started make sure the surface of your item you’re painting is nice and smooth, dry and free from any contaminants such as dust, oil or wax. Protect the distressed effect with Rust-Oleum furniture finishing wax or Rust-Oleum furniture lacquer.Painted furniture may look nice, but you also need to take steps to protect it from scuffs that come with regular use. Homebase offers paint for furniture in a range of colours and finishes, giving you everything you need to get creative. If you want a solid finish, you will probably need two or three coats, but for a finish that you want to distress and sand back you will need fewer. Once the paint has dried, use a fine grade sandpaper and lightly sand down the areas where you want to see the base colour.

It is our recommendation that a trial area is first coated to ensure the product is satisfactory to individual requirements. Create a distressed look by applying two coats in contrasting colours then sanding / scouring when dry. No priming or sanding necessary on most surfaces (simply ensure surfaces are smooth, dry and free from contaminants).
