  • I found this painted chest of drawers on the Facebook Marketplace and knew it needed a restoration. In this video I remove all the paint from the surface, apply new veneer, use gel stain, and spray water-based polyurethane. Let me know if you like the final look of this restored piece of furniture!

  • @sarahjoyce5041
    @sarahjoyce5041 Месяц назад +4

    Oh tip I would suggest is next time you have veneer that's not missing but perhaps not glued down any more. You can use a needle to put glue and then clamp it you dry. You can save the veneer this way. But if you have a bunch of missing veneer it is certainly easier to redo it all. Just depends on how much you want to sink into the project. You did a fantastic, fantastic job. 😁

    A great no-nonsense resto. Probably a smidgen better than when it was first made.
    Would have used a wipe-on finish myself - too lazy to clean up the spray equipment.

    This one gives you something to work with. Not in the worst shape. I hear a lot of criticism in the way furniture was painted in weird colors, but it probably looked pretty good in their own choice of decor. I think it gets personal. An open mind is required! LOL!

    Try using a chip brush to apply the paint stripper in the future. That rag or sponge didn't leave a thick enough coat of stripper which is why it dried out. Your plastic bag application seemed to be on point. Very beautiful restoration!
