Answer 1

I would give it a light sanding and spray paint it. Go to home Depot or Lowe's and choose a spray paint and color. There are many different types of paint to choose from so read the labels and get the one that's best for you. I think it would look cool painted in stone (it looks like stone!). Anything that is going to be painted that is bare wood or metal will need a primer painted on before the paint. Check it out and have fun.

Answer 2

I would use oil based paint, you will keep that glossy look just make sure that you sand down any scratches or unevenness because the oil based paint will define the imperfections.  Good Luck!

Answer 3

you use a pink and orange paint and you go up and down with the brush
