Don't do the whiteboard table :) At least not with Rustoleum paint. I sent a follow up to ohdeedoh but it was never posted. BeWARE the paint, it looks like garbage after about 2 weeks or so and my local Lowe's no longer carries it because it's such a bad product. I'm still trying to remove it but it is very slow going and doesn't want to come off.
My table still looked pretty in pictures but up close? It looked awful.
