I want to spray a coffee table with BM Advance. The table has as best I can determine a lacquer based finish. (Lacquer thinner made it tacky but not alcohol.) I was thinking to use BIN as a primer. Here are my questions.
1. Do I need a primer? The present finish is dark and BIN is white so it might save a coat of paint. But do I really need to put primer over the old finish and if so why?
2. In what manner does the old finish need to be prepped? Just cleaned well, or does it need to be sanded to break the glaze? Or just rubbed down with Lacquer thinner?
Thanks
