Painting Wicker ??

[JoePa]

We are redoing our beach house. I want to paint our wicker furniture ( which is indoor furniture e.g. kitchen table, sofa bed, and two end chairs. It is not the plastic wicker it is " the real wicker." Can anyone advise me if this is #1 - doable and #2 - what kind of paint do I use? - Oil base, spray paint etc. Thanks for your help.

We had real wicker patio furniture (enclosed) and it lasted for years. I just used to use a can of spray paint, can't remember which type and it was just fine.

Go to a store in your area that specializes in selling paint & ask them. Don't go to a big box store (Lowe's, Home Depot, Sears, etc). My guess would be enamel spray paint but that's really a guess.
