Yellow is beautiful color that is sure to pop in virtually any room. Use it as a way to add contrast to room or as a way to draw attention. Either way, its great way to brighten up any living space.

What you'll need:

  • Rust-Oleum Golden Sunset - This stuff is super cheap and works great. A single can is enough for at least one piece, depending on the size. For most folks this is the go-to.
  • Rust-Oleum Matte Clear Finish - You'll use this as a top coat on after the matte black has dried. This will provide extra protection without changing the look.

Directions:

  1. Clean your piece to remove dust; compressed air is great option if you have it.
  2. Lay pieces flat on cardboard or newspaper, bottom side up.
  3. Shake spray paint for at least a minute.
  4. Evenly spray one side; drying can take 30 mins to 6 hrs, depending on conditions.
  5. Flip and repeat.
  6. Lightly sand dried sides with 220-320 grit sandpaper.
  7. Apply a second, even coat and let it dry overnight.
  8. Assemble legs into the top; optional dime-size glue will make it permanent.
  9. Flip and level the table; sit on it to ensure stability.
  10. Touch up any marks.
  11. Apply Clear Matte Finish; it dries quickly.
  12. Repeat step 11 for extra protection (recommended).
