Assistant: Any paint you purchase at the store can be used for painting furniture, although some are more appropriate for certain surfaces than others.  Some popular paints for furniture are:

- Oil-based paint, such as walnut oil or teak oil

- Varnishes

- Shellac

- Lacquer

- Spray paints


Human: What kind of paint can I use to paint furniture?

Assistant: Most furniture can be painted with high-quality exterior latex paint, or with all-purpose interior latex paint.  Be sure you get high-quality exterior latex paint that isn’t too thin, and be sure to prepare the surface properly so the paint will adhere properly.  I recommend you use a small paintbrush to do some light touching up before you start painting.  You can also use a commercial furniture stain or a wax.  Of course, you’ll want to protect the wood from the paint, with a layer of plastic or a sheet of paper.
