Refinishing a pine dining table in small living room with limited ventilation — safe options?
I have an oval pine table and chairs I got from Ebay. We are using it as dining table. I don't have an outdoor space to do the job and not sure how much ventilation I can achieve (have an nuaire flatmaster extractor installed in living room used for reducing humidity). The table will be in our living room and I will apply it there if I decide to go for this. There are cup rings on it I was considering applying some sandpaper, then chalk paint and matt lacquer/varnish. I am concerned about the health aspect. What can I achieve without permanent/long term toxic gases in my living room? Do I need lacquer/varnish at all? Will the paint get damaged easily if I don't apply any coating? We are two and have two cats. We can keep the cats away from the living from for few days though. I did not buy anything yet. Could you help me with the choices? What are my safest options? Could you help me deciding? These were the products I was considering: Sandpaper Chalk paint and wax brush set Rust-Oleum AMZ0014 Chalky Finish Furniture Paint - Clotted Cream Rust-Oleum Furnite Lacquer Clear submitted by /u/Ok_Importance4717 [link] [comments]
