Tip: Use an empty egg container to hold different hardware during the painting process. Label each section according to its location.

Tip: Latex will not adhere to an oil based surface. If this applies to your particular project, use oil based paint.

6. Paint all of the primed surfaces with black paint.
7. Reassemble the doors and hinges--previously removed--and then put the sliding drawer back in place.
