I've never seen one peeling and some are really old. Maybe just the corner if it's fallen on concrete? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/stokke-tripp-trapp-paint#post-976336 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 16:30:51 +0000 blackbird 976336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You could maybe just sand everything off and have it re-varnished nicely?....paint's kind of a bitch. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/stokke-tripp-trapp-paint#post-976333 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 16:29:52 +0000 shopaholic 976333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: ugh! I would rather just buy one brand-new. lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/stokke-tripp-trapp-paint#post-976328 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 16:27:26 +0000 blackbird 976328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it has to be re-painted, you might want to consider having it done professionally. It should be sanded, primed, and painted with a spray gun at proper temperatures and humidity. That's how they get it to stick/stay so much better than anything we paint ourselves :) Spray &gt; Brush. Especially for something high use that you'll be wiping and touching a lot (and that you want to be safe. Prepping the chair is key!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/stokke-tripp-trapp-paint#post-976323 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 16:25:38 +0000 oliviaoblivia 976323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't noticed any problem with the paint, but we've only been using it a month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/stokke-tripp-trapp-paint#post-976291 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 16:08:56 +0000 shopaholic 976291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been trying to look for a used Stokke Tripp Trapp high chair in grey, white, or black. I found one kind of far away in white (like 1 1/2 hr drive) but he said it needs to be re-painted, and it's common in the painted colors? Anyone here have a painted color Tripp Trapp? Did you have problems with the paint peeling or chipping? Wondering if I should just find a natural wood, if that's the case. </p>
