Equipment

  • Foam brush

Instructions

  • Assemble the adjustable tray to get a feel for how it works.
  • Use the fine sandpaper to give the gloss finish of the tray table an easier surface for the spray paint to stick to. Make sure to wipe the surface after sanding.
  • Paint 2 thin coats of the metallic gold spray paint over the entire tray table and let dry completely.
  • While the spray paint is drying, use the foam brush and wood stain to stain the wood painting panel and let dry.
  • Once all of the pieces are completely dry, use the liquid nails to glue the wood painting panel down over the flat surface of the tray table and let set for several hours.
  • Once the pieces are all assembled, use the spray shellac to put a clear, food-safe protective coating over the entire tray table and let dry for 24 hours.
