When I first spotted this table, I immediately gravitated to it, totally drooling over it's sweet curves. Upon closer inspection, I was quite surprised to see that it was not made of wood, but a molded plastic! Well, the top is formica and pressed board, but nonetheless, it's a heavy and quite sturdy table. So....I took the chance.
You wouldn't know at first, huh?
Closer look at the legs....
Nice "carvings"!
Now look at it with a couple of coats of paint.

I chose to use American Paint Company paint on this one. I used Rushmore as the base and topped it with Home Plate. I wet sanded it to expose some of the Rushmore.
I gave it several coats of clear and dark wax.

WOW, you would never know that it's not wood. I think you did a terrific job on the table. I have a little table project I am going to be working on also.
