There’s a quick way to get your old lamps, frames, or furniture a new look. It’s called spray paint. Here’s how to get great results. Spread newspapers underneath before you start. Wear latex gloves to make cleanup a snap. Whenever possible, use Satin instead of Glossy paint for less drips and a more even finish. Shake the can well before using and throughout your paint job. Spray at least 6 inches away and go for several even coats.
