Painting Plywood
1.Decide what color you want the final plywood to be.
2.Purchase a quality primer. Plywood is very porous. By using a primer, you will reduce the coats of paint needed and insure a better final outcome.
3.Ask your paint retailer to tint the primer to a similar shade as the paint you've chosen.
4.Lightly sand the plywood and dust well with tack cloth to remove all dust from the surface to be painted.
5.Roll primer on plywood with roller-style brush to achieve a smooth finish and avoid brush marks. Allow to thoroughly dry. Review your work to determine if second coat of primer is needed. If you can see the wood easily through the primer, apply another coat.
6.Complete with final top coat of paint color of your choice.
Faux-Barnwood Floor Finish
1.Prime the floor. To achieve a wide plank look, use a 4 or 6 inch roller or brush. A brush will give a more rustic appearance.
2.Paint with base coat, typically a color with a yellow undertone.
3.Follow with top coat color, a dark red or mahogany shade of paint will give the most authentic finish to your plywood floor.
4.Allow the imperfections of your paint job stand, they will add to the rustic look of this faux-finish.
5.Let paint cure for several days prior to daily use.
Create a Faux-stain Finish With Paint
1.Prime with primer tinted to your base coat, a light honey or yellow toned paint.
2.Paint the surface with your base coat.
3.Tape off widths to create the look of wood planks. Measure and tape sections, working with every other section. This will make the width of planks uniform.
4.Apply one long line of darker paint to one section.
5.Quickly drag wood graining tool through the wet paint, lifting and rocking to create knots.
6.Wipe rocking tool clean of excess paint and go to next section.
7.Allow paint to thoroughly dry and remove tape.
8.Lay new tape over completed sections to expose sections that were taped so you can paint those next.
9.Continue this process until plywood is covered.
10.Allow to dry thoroughly.
