Painting/Staining a Cot?

Thanks for the info tal!!

Yay for the scan going well!! Did you cave and find out the sex? I would have hehe.

Nope, didn't cave. DH told the ultrasonographer right at the start we didn't want to know the sex, so she never asked. That having been said, by the end of the scan I SO wanted to know and kept hoping that I might see a something.

Hey we painted our DS's cot too

We bought Dulux, then rang the company to ask (forgot to ask bunnings lady when we bought it). The man at that dulux service centre said all dulux paints have been approved baby safe, for toys, furniture - you name it since the 1980's (cant remember the exact date)

I repainted my DD1s cot, i just asked the paint guy to recommend ones that are non toxic, ie no lead and things in case she became a chewer. So he got me a dark stain that he said was ok

Ive purchased a white cot now so we're not going to sand it back but just touch it up, so will definately ask the paint man whats best!
