Here is a list of what you need to do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Clean the furniture well: Remove dust, dirt and any residue with a damp cloth. If the furniture has grease or stubborn stains, use a little neutral soap.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sand the surface: To ensure good adhesion of the paint, it is advisable to sand the furniture with fine-grit sandpaper. You do not need to sand excessively, just enough to remove the shine from the wood.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repair imperfections: If the furniture has scratches or bumps, apply a special wood filler and let it dry before sanding again. This way, you will have a smooth and flawless surface.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Choose the right paint<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Choosing a good paint is key for the result to be impeccable.
