Step 1

Step one
Lightly sand the outside of the teapot with sandpaper and then wipe off any sanding dust with a clean cloth – this will help the paint to stick.

Step 3

Apply two coats of Resene Niagara to the outside of the teapot, allowing two hours for each coat to dry.

Step four
Paint the centre of the daisy with two coats of Resene Broom and allow two hours for each coat to dry.
