dagling Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Have set up a small house of old wood on the neighboring plot, and nearly ready to be painted. Looking for paint / oil based paint with a long shelf life, high quality, would rather pay extra for a quality paint. Want an extra-strong durable paint / oil to the wooden floor. Want a nice nut brown color (teak color), so I ask if you have experience and can recommend a manufacturer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyk Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 (edited) Sand the wood lightly and clean it with turpentine (pait thinner) to get rid of dust. Use an oil-base stain on the wooden floor. Sikkens makes excellent products, not cheap but first quality and many tones. Edited June 15, 2012 by johnnyk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRealDeal Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 You should stain it not paint it ..... And don't use a solid stain ...... keep the wood looking like wood with a nice stain it will look better for longer , paint will chip , stain will not and small scratches are not noticable.
