Bath Stool

By Ninor, member Nov 30, 2010

The stool is made of MDF and what makes it special and gives it a rustic look is the paint job which consists of 3 coats or acrylic red plus two coats of white and sanding off the white to reveal parts of the red. For durability and increase of the oldish look I finished it with poly varnish.

That looks great. Was it water based poly over the acrylic.

Thanks for your feedback guys and yes, I used polyurethane lacquer over the acrylic paint job.
