I have a customer that requested a key hook for her house similar to the picture below. I have the board stained already, but I'm wondering how I would finish it in regards to the wording and some sort of poly/clear coating.
First, what type of paint would I use for the wording and the paw print? I was originally thinking a standard, flat white latex paint, then coat everything in poly, but I'm worried that the paint would yellow.
Do I poly first, then paint the words on? Would the paint be fine on it's own over the poly? or do I paint the words first, then poly or some other type of clear over it and hope the paint doesn't turn yellow?
Or am I over-thinking this? lol
