  • I’m sure this has been asked a thousand times, but…
    I want to paint my front door bright yellow, it’s solid oak, has a bit of water staining at the bottom and Liz hates it. If it was painted bright yellow she may let it stay. How and other what should I do?

  • don't paint it [yellow] , remove all previous coatings (machine sand) apply a stain - you'll find it more sympathetic to the timber and the opacity can be built to appear like paint . Sadolin classic (first coat) and sadolin extra durable for two three more, the 'oil' stuff. Loads of other brands available

  • For red, blue or green I'm with you, but I suspect transparent yellow stain will look like very shit wood.
