Its over twenty years old, and has the original cream paint and gold trim. The finish is EXTREMELY glossy all over, and I was just curious if you had to sand the desk at all, or if the Gripper primer held the paint on well. I know this post is a couple of years old, but I'm crossing my fingers you can find time to reply! Thank you so much, I am loving your blog :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06032507301513955761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234565171848559379.post-70945678650104335472013-09-05T01:38:26.338-04:002013-09-05T01:38:26.338-04:00well this is very impressive. i really feel great....well this is very impressive. i really feel great. you have nice thoughts. <br /><a href="http://www.supremebedz.co.uk" rel="nofollow"> Top quality furniture company</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06215786991184520008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234565171848559379.post-59252595333190369222013-05-27T08:32:56.189-04:002013-05-27T08:32:56.189-04:00For this desk, I used a paint and primer combo (Be...For this desk, I used a paint and primer combo (Behr premium plus), but I have also used primer and then Rustoleum semi-gloss black. Which actually I liked better than the paint I used on this desk. I always use a Purdy brush,(the angled ones are great!) they are great quality and if you're careful leave very minimal brush marks.
