You can paint onto varnished wood, but, like all paint projects, you will need to do some preparation to ensure a good finish, explains Paul Kerr, Building specialist at Beatsons. "Technically, yes, you can paint directly onto varnished wood. However, it is difficult to keep paint adhering to the glossy surface as varnish seals off the wood underneath." He adds, "The key to painting on varnish is to prepare the surface for adhesion, making sure the paint can stick and hold to it."

"Before, this was a junk, shoe, and coat closet, but mostly a room full of 'throw it in the closet' stuff… I was finally able to come up with a use for the room that would add some value to my life: a little space for me!"
