Hi Joshua,

I don't have much knowledge on the subject of paints but I think an oil based pain would be better.  Perhaps others will be able to help you more.

Hi, Joshua

Have you by any chance already checked out Greg Letts's site (my number two site for all table tennis info, after PingSkills, of course!)?  He has a page on tables, with some useful looking links, here:-

http://tabletennis.about.com/od/beginnersfaqs/f/build_tt_table.htm

Let us know how you get on with the whole table building project anyway, will you?  A lot of us have old tables that could do with restoring or repairing and it would be nice to benefit from your experiences.  :]

Good luck!

Thanks Gordon for helping out.  It would be good to hear how you do with the table.
