I have had Sanford for about one year. Not a hard project, just didn’t have the place to finish him.
Once he was started it was very easy to continue and finish him. The top was stripped with a stripper that I had lying around. Any kind would do. The next step was to sand the top so the bare wood was exposed. I then applied mineral spirits so the stain would be easier to apply. Minwax Weathered Grey was applied using 3 coats and sanding in between. The final step was to apply GF Gel Top Coat, 3 layers.
I painted the bottom half in Rustoleum Charcoal but not before a rough sanding was applied. When the 2 coats of chalk paint had dried I applied Rustoleum Linen White in a dry brushing method, Finally finishing with a coat of Minwax paste wax.
I always love to see the end result because it is usually such a transformation.

AFTER
Love it.
