I am working on a dinette this summer for my mother-in-law and it is taking some time. I am stripping the table because of the amount of paint on it. Four chairs to paint, I do not plan on stripping the chairs. 3 of the chairs are stained and finished, probably laquer, and one is painted. I saw some deglosser and thought that would make the chairs fairly simple to do; simply apply the deglosser with steel wool then prime and paint. I have never used deglosser, actually have not done much painting, so was wondering if the deglosser would do a good quality job or is it better to sand the gloss off? I have a good quality oil based primer and a water based paint, the best quality Menards paint. Here is a pic of the project before I started.
