Ahh thanks so much! I’m sorry to hear about your finish on your table not turning out the way that you had hoped. Does it have a much rougher texture than you were hoping for? That could be due to skipping the sanding between the coats of primer. Did you use Sherwin Williams Emerald Urethane Trim Enamel paint? If that is the case, then yes I think you could do some light sanding with 400 grit and see if it smoothes it out a little bit. Then I would clean all that sanding dust up and give it another fresh coat of paint. Sure hope that helps it turn out for you! Good luck!

I copied everything you did on a table and chairs that I’m doing. However, I missed the step on sanding between coats of primer and then lightly sanding the primer if you do two coats. And then I put on the paint and it has dried, but it’s not like it should be. I’m just wondering if I should sand the paint with 400 grit and do another coat of paint. Or if that will ruin it. I don’t think I have much choice right now. But any advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated thank you!
