So, my wife wanted to get a dresser for the nursery. I offered to make one but she wanted it before the baby is in college. We found one at the Pottery Barn outlet that was 80% off so we loaded it up and brought it home. Only problem is she wants it white and it is currently "honey pine".
My question is this. What steps do I need to take to seal the knots and do I need to sand the existing finish to get paint to stick well? I was thinking I would give my PC HVLP sprayer a try (haven't used it yet) but I'm not sure if this is the best application.
The pictures are to try and give some idea of the current finish. It is not a "deep" gloss finish, more of a shallow satin.
Thanks for the ideas and help.
