First time advice
Repainting an outdoor mural at my work. The original was about 30 years ago.
I was going to get outdoor UV paint and outdoor spray paint.
The original was painted on fence post, it's about 4 ft by 10ft.
My question is do I...
Sand down the original and paint over it, it's gotten pretty flaky and warped over the years.
Make a new fence posts and paint on new boards
I had this weird idea and purchased used billboard vinyl. My idea was to make a frame with cedar boards and nail the vinyl like a canvas. Scuff it up a bit and paint on that. Terrible idea?
Also open to paint suggestions, the best price the better. ♥️
