How Do You Paint New Outdoor Wood Furniture?

Painting wood furniture is a great way to add color and life to your outdoor space. Painting wood furniture is also an easy, inexpensive way to give it a makeover and make it look new again.

With the right supplies, you can easily paint your outdoor wood furniture to give it a new look.

Steps To Paint New Outdoor Wood Furniture

Before you get started, make sure that you have all the necessary supplies for the job. You will need a paintbrush, paint roller, sandpaper, primer, and exterior latex paint.

Once you have gathered all the materials you will need, begin by sanding down the surfaces of your furniture with the sandpaper. This will help to create a smoother surface for painting and will help ensure that your paint job lasts longer.

Next, apply a coat of primer to all of the surfaces of your furniture. This will help protect the wood from moisture and UV rays while also helping the paint adhere better. Allow plenty of time for the primer to dry before moving on.

Once the primer has dried completely, begin painting your outdoor wood furniture with exterior latex paint. Start by applying an even coat with your brush or roller on all of your furniture’s surfaces. Allow this coat to dry completely before applying additional coats as needed.

Conclusion

Painting outdoor wood furniture is relatively simple with the right supplies and a bit of patience. All you need is some sandpaper, primer, paintbrush or roller and exterior latex paint in order to transform old outdoor wooden pieces into vibrant new pieces that will bring life into any outdoor space!
