Painting a table
I have recently completed a table that will be used solely for beer games but have yet to find an appropriate type of alcohol resistant paint or even how to go about it really. Do I need to prime the table first before painting? Does it need a finishing?

Welcome to the forums!
What do you want the finished product to look like?
For paint I'd recomend an oil base enamel undercoater followed by 2 coats of a quality oil base enamel [sand lightly between coats]
Or you could stain [or not] and apply 3 coats of an oil base polyurathane.[again, sand lightly between coats]

The finished table is going to be predominantly purple (being the engineering colour) with a crest in the centre. Whether or not it has a glossy finish is really in the air still. Thanks.
