Chalk paint can go over any previous medium without necessary priming, however it might take an extra coat as this piece did because of it’s original strong under color. Rubbing on the burnt umber tinted wax took a 3rd passover. The interior was treated with a brushed on finish.

The table required a little extra work. Because the original finish was so dark, it needed at least 7 translucent coats of paint glaze to create the pickled look.
