How to paint wood veneer furniture?

Hi, We have a chest of drawers in one of our spare bedrooms. It was few stains at the top. It is made of wood veneer, I have sanded the draws and I will lightly sand the top. 

I will like to paint it but I am not sure what products to use. Thanks

Re: wood veneer

Hi @Carla4,

 

A warm welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is fantastic to have you with us.

 

Check out the range of Porter's Furniture Paints. They come in a variety of modern colours that will make your chest of drawers look fantastic. Ensure you use a coat of Porter's Paints Prepare & Prime before painting and follow the instructions on the label closely for the best results.

 

This is one option that I'm certain will look fantastic, but there is not just one solution. Just make sure you use a primer followed by 2-3 coats of paint in the colour and finish of your choice.

 

You might also like to check out How To Upcycle Almost Anything With Paint for some further guidance.

 

Let me know what you think.

 

Jacob
