In our opinion, the old legs of benches should be left as they are, obviously they must be restored with appropriate new wood resistent to the action of atmospheric agents, better with stainless steel bolts, but the legs, given that they are eternal, you can leave with antique paint, with craquelure.

The type of wood that we recommend first is the European Oak (Quercus pubescens), secondly the European Cypress (Cupressus sempervirens) incorruttible but difficult to find.

The cost of sandblasting and painting just for legs amounts to € 210.00 including VAT (any color of the RAL table).
