In September I purchased this chest for $39 at a charity shop. I stripped off the years of wax and grime with stripper. After five coats of latex primer, the old finish still leaked through as pink. I finally purchased a quart of Kilz oil based primer. After one coat, my husband painted the green coat with a latex eggshell, the same color as our dining room walls. ("Tightly curled bud" by Sherwin Williams) it was worth the learning effort! The chest contains all my placemats, napkins and tablecloths! Hope you like it!
