Lesson Learned

So, I am pretty new to the furniture painting. I wish
I would have gotten the memo that red paint takes
900 coats and a white primer is NOT IDEAL.
Still not finished but getting closer.


This is after about 5 coats. Only 2 more to go...
I got a really helpful tip. Whenever you are painting
something red you should go with a gray primer (thanks Jaime)
