| I have two chairs that I had to strip in order to refurbish. I painted them with high-quality Stulb's Old Village oil paint. Now I intend to paint some decorative designs on them. Should I use artist's oil paint, or is it OK to use hobbyist acrylic--would the acrylic bond in a long-lasting way or will it peel off? |

| You can put oil base paint over acrylic but not acrylic over oil.I would use artist's oil for the decorative designs.You might want to seal when finished......Lillie |

| Thanks, I thought that might be the case, but wanted to check with the experts first! :) |
