Default Help with Highboy

I would use the cheapest wagner sprayer and semigloss latex
for this and you may as well give the inside a good coat to
tighten up those drawers.

I am just finishing a Cherry classic reproduction Queen Anne Highboy.
3 years in the making and over 200 hours of hand carving for the
drawer fronts, crest, etc. All the wwod is from one lovely tree that
was planted by my great grandfather on the family farm. I am wondering
when I paint it all red if I should use interior latex or enamel?
Also, should I use a stippling roller or maybe a foam one for for a
smoother finish.


Distress it with napalm. Then fill in the big holes with *Spackle*.
Primer. Paint. Spar Varnish for added protection.
Dang, I like this kind of talk.
