Question
how to paint furniture step by step
Hi Sakti
Nice to hear from you.
You do not say if this furniture is used and you want to paint it, or if its new unfinished wood furniture.
In either case, a light sanding with 220 sandpaper, then prime with wood primer, then another light sanding and then two coats of your chosen color.
Painting is one of the easiest jobs you can do and I hope your job turns out well.
Thank you for a great question
Kindest Regards
Eileen

Hi..I can answer most questions about the repairing,stripping and refinishing of all your old furniture and wood items(the things we call antiques)I can give advice about what to buy/avoid at auctions/flea markets. I do not give appraisals on antiques.
Experience
I have been refinishing antiques for the past 30yrs. While I have taken several courses over the years,I have found that "hands on" learning is the best teacher. Perhaps I can help you avoid some of the mistakes I made while learning.
