Anyone have any tips for painting wood? Since it was just construction grade lumber, I went with an outdoor paint vs a stain. But I noticed in the direct sun some small areas have slight bubbling. Did I just not do a good enough job preparing the surface? I want to get it right before building the coffee table. Thanks!
