Start painting (you can mix 1/2 water 1/2 paint for the first coat), let dry and repeat till you feel like it is coated good enough. I rubbed a wax over the top when I was done to seal it and give it a good patina. You probably already know all this. :) Let me know how it goes! BTW, I wish I could find things for $3.95!
