Why not strip the paint (hot air gun or Nitromors) and repaint it?

BTW many people (including me) prefer oil-based paint to acrylics,
especially on something like a window sill/cill.

epoxy is way better although I would tend to use polyester - its cheaper
- paint must come off first and wood needs roughing up a bit for a key


you need a specialist resin supplier. google pourable resin
most are clear - you will need a white pigment too
