Today I'm telling the storey of my outset spray pigment disaster.
It all started amongst an innocent piffling thrift shop desk.

Although I'm pretty certain it had it out for me from the start, every bit at that topographic point were several spiders inwards the drawer simply waiting to trap me upwardly inwards a spider web as well as drain my blood.
That's how far it went inwards my head.

Luckily Jesse is ever willing to de-spider things for me. And thus he offered to assistance me drill the novel holes for the handle.
After my novel holes were drilled, I took the desk exterior inwards the driveway as well as applied a bunch of forest filler to all of the scratches as well as dents. This desk was 1 large giant dent.
Every white splotch on the to a higher house drawer was a dent or hole.
That pace lonely took a practiced sixty minutes to complete.
Next, I used this gray primer (affiliate link) to prime number the desk since I had decided to spray pigment it black.
I truly dear the agency the grayness primer looks past times itself. I should receive got waxed it as well as quit there.
Seriously though, who knew grayness primer turned out thus pretty. It makes me desire to purpose it on something else. It's simply that perfect shade of gray-blue.

But, of course of education I didn't halt there, because I was assault having a glossy dark desk.
And that's when my projection turned into a flake of a disaster.
And that's when my projection turned into a flake of a disaster.
I've spray painted thus many things inwards the past times span of years as well as I've never had this plough over off before.
I used patently former high gloss dark spray pigment as well as for some argue it looked amazing everywhere except the overstep of the desk. The overstep of the desk was super streaky.
So, I allow it dry out for a few hours as well as thus took it within as well as sanded downward simply the overstep of the desk.
I could receive got sanded it all the agency down, but life is short, thus I simply sanded it smooth.
Then, I primed the overstep of the desk amongst brush on primer, primed it, thus painted it amongst some apartment dark pigment I had on hand. Then position a coat of Polycrylic on top.
It wasn't the ideal province of affairs I had planned, every bit my conception was to accept 10 minutes to spray pigment it as well as endure done. But, sometimes things acquire messed upwardly as well as you lot simply receive got to figure out a agency some it.
I debated non sharing my spray pigment disaster, but I figured that I'm non the exclusively 1 who's had a streaky spray pigment employment as well as that possibly this would assistance person else figure out what to do. I've since figured out that it didn't function because I spray painted a large apartment surface (the overstep of the desk) amongst a depression character dark lacquer spray paint. I've since spray painted this amongst a high character glossy dark spray pigment as well as it turned out perfectly.
So, I've lived as well as learned.
But, all is good inwards the end, every bit it however turned out pretty cool for a piffling thrift shop desk!
That's all for today!
'Til side past times side time!
