The finish on this product is paintable, or can be left “as is.” There is no prep work necessary. The surface is designed to accept latex, acrylic, or alkyd (solvent-based) paints. DPI prefers alkyd type paint. The best quality alkyd paints usually flow better and leave a smoother surface. We also recommend the best quality 2-1/2″ or 3″ brush for application, as opposed to a roller. Follow all paint manufacturers’ safety directions, especially for ventilation.
