got this old set of draws that is clear finish that i want to spray white.

this is what i am thinking

orbital sand with 180G
hand sand edges with 180G
tack rag
spray 1 coat zineg primer 1-2-3
rub back 320G
spray white 2 coats,

not sure what type of white to use, if to just thin down some enmel or use something else, we do have some single pack white wattly left over but not sure.

You might just check to see if you need to de-nib the first coat of white paint before you apply the second.

Otherwise I can't see anything wrong with that plan.

You could fine sand any damaged bits them wipe over with a product called ESP this prepares the surface for paint,spray or brush,I have used a small roller for the flat surfaces brush the rest,came out great.
Have a look in bunnies and read the instructions,beats sanding it all down.:2tsup:
