Buying advice

Consider the type of furniture and desired finish: chalk paints work well for distressed looks, while enamel paints offer tougher finishes for high-use pieces. Most paints require proper surface prep (cleaning and light sanding) for best adhesion. Check if primer is needed, and factor in drying time and odor, especially for indoor projects.
