@Sparky79 STOP you’re making it worse! You painted furniture that you designed and crafted. That’s insulting your own work.
Unless it’s MDF - straight to the Burn pile.
There are so many wonderful things that you can do to timber without painting it.
Acids and alkaline. Cabot’s CFP Water Base Matt
Maybe it’s the photo?
Keep practicing

@Glisten oh the furniture isn't something I designed, I assembled it and painted it with enamel as it had come out of the box whitewashed, and the enamel provides extra protection. I've always been a fan of clear coat or a light stain to enhance the wood grain. I love nature and natural things, so for me the only time I paint something is if it's going to be exposed to the elements. The bit I designed is what the engraver cut and engraved. Admittedly I think I did something a bit silly today as I have a sort of black / dull area in a portion of vision in my right eye. I'm praying that it's not permanent laser damage. My paint is stored under the laser engraver shelf and I think I may have been flashed when I was getting the paint out.
