Hi Guys & Gals, after some advice please, I was almost going to freecycle this Butterfly outdoor jobbie bought for one of the boys 10 odd years ago with all the family chipping in - it was expensive!
Many years of fun but has laid dormant for about 4 years and the surface has succumbed to the elements at last event tho an out door job - warped and swelling..The cover died 4-5 years in.
The wife says its an eye sore, the boy doesn't care about it and I'm too nostalgic to bin it, so going to get it back in order
The folding mech and dollies will be a piece of cake as it was pretty well built.
Would really appreciate suggestions on what wood surface type to use? and the harder question..what outdoor super smooth green and white paint to finish?
Cheers
Chris
