I recently built myself an outdoor ping pong table. It is not plywood but plybead. This is similar to a composite wood or particle board. The surface is already perfectly smooth. I want to paint and seal the table so it won't warp in various weather conditions. Does anyone know how I can go about doing this without ruining this type of wood?


Answer
Go with an Oil base primer preferably one of Benjamin Moores or Sherwin Williams better grade primer/paints. When you prime be sure to get the edges and any groves or crevasses the ply bead may have. Do two good coats of primer on it. The first coat thin it down slightly with paint thinner. Let dry for 12 to 24 hours. This will raise the grain slightly so sand it down with a sanding block after it dries. The second coat should be a regular coat without thinning. Sand again. You can then put a good quality 100% acrylic paint over it or an oil base paint will do just fine. But get a good quality primer and paint because you don't want your hard work and skill to be in vain.

I have a outdoor blue top aluminum ping pong table but not sure what model it is! The words are in German underneath the table and the only numbers are 7162-600. But I can't find any exact model online! It either has to be the nordkap or the stockholme! But I'm not sure so please help me determine this... The reason why I don't know is because I bought it off of craigs list off a lady that was trying to get money from her boyfriend stuff! Thanks
