That came out very nice, I would be inclined to keep the matte finish look.

It is going to be a matte finish.....but that's just a tinted primer thats on there....the next coat is going to be double espresso (very dark brown almost black) so it will match my wifes kitchen table set.

Great stand design! I'll be building a similar one for my 40breeder soon...thx for the ideas

. What kind of paint, primer and sealants did you use?

I'd have to go out to out side and look at the can's but it was an exterior latex.
I'll have a look in the morning and post the brand for you
