Hi there,
We have a peach marble fireplace we're going to paint over - can't afford to get rid of it any other way.
Been looking at how to do this properly. It looks like a good sand (at 80grit?), followed by Bullseye 123 and then an eggshell top coat would work well.
My other half has found Annie Sloan chalk paint and wants to try just painting over the top with no prep.
Finally, the gas fireplace is still operational and might be used over winter. I don't *think* we need a fire retardant paint as the marble surround is 'outside' the fireplace. Is this a mistake? Is the paint liable to crack?
Thanks!
