    The work you do goes beyond restoration, and how to bring to life something that has been forgotten in time. Congratulations on the beautiful work and keep it up. A hug straight from Brazil

    I like the top to have imperfections when staining it, it looks authentic and has real character. So glad you saved this from the landfill, it still has many years of great use. Love the end results.

    One of the BEST videos I've seen. I absolutely love that you included so many details in restoration of the damaged areas as I have a dresser in somewhat of the same condition and had no idea how to fix it. Grateful you went into detail on the sprayer, paint mixture, and clean-up. Amazed at how you had to course correct due to all the damage and filler on the top which ended up turning out beautifully! Your attention to detail is beyond reproach. Thank you for sharing ❤

    Thank Goodness It was Free! What a Piece of Junk! It's Quite a Handsome Piece Now! But It took So Much Work to get it there. Was it cost Effective? The Paint Sprayer Tutorial was Good Too. I Hope the Company Sends You LOTS of Goodies for That!

    • @FurnitureFlippa

      Yes thankfully haha it was certainly a lot of work... realistically for a simple flip and best ROI, painting all of it would have been the best for profit per hours worked. However, I like to try things and challenge myself to show everyone watching because it makes for a more enjoyable video! (Well I hope so lol) Thanks for watching! :)

    I love the way this chest turned out and the way you explain what you're doing. I refinished a few pieces of furniture for myself many years ago although I really didn't know what I was doing. For some reason, I have started watching several furniture refinishing/restoration channels. I just love it. Your video makes me feel like I should tackle some of my own furniture that could use some refreshing. And you've just about convinced me to buy that sander and sprayer😂. Great job and I'm looking forward to the next one.

      Yes it lasts a long time! 35-40 minutes of spray time, which is plenty as it only takes a few minutes to actually paint the piece.

    • @FurnitureFlippa
      @FurnitureFlippa  9 месяцев назад +2

      Hey! After moving out of my home a few years ago I haven’t been spraying furniture until this project. I rented this garage recently and will spray some pieces in the future. I haven’t used the homeright in a long time but I still have it! In terms of holding up I’m sure it will still work fine but I’d have to test that out haha not sure if not using it for a long duration causes issues, I guess we will find out whenever I test it. However, this snapfresh sprayer seems to work as well as the others and it’s cordless so it seems like a safe choice for the time being. Thanks for watching!

    • @FurnitureFlippa
      @FurnitureFlippa  3 месяца назад

      I haven't come across it yet, either. However, from my understanding, you want to stay away from creating airborne particles, so avoid scraping and sanding. You'll want to use stripper, keeping it in a liquid state, tossing it in a bucket, and then disposing it. Also its recommended to work on it outside and with goggles/respirator/gloves.
      Honestly, I think if I do find it, I may just toss the piece because I don't think its worth it. I also don't have the space to work on it outside right now, so for that reason I would skip the project.

    На мой взгляд он получился слишком темным, а отделка столешницы видна только крупным планом . В паре метров рядом - все воспринимается ровно одного цвета. Явно не хватает хоть небольшого контраста столешницы, фурнитуры. Тем более, что ящики внутри сохранили теплый цвет натурального дерева. Но в любом случае - исходный комод был вообще ужасным, а сейчас чудная аещь для любителей темной простой мебели.

    Actually, I thought the knobs were very appropriate with the black lacquer. I think you are right in that it was put on in a very sloppy manner but if more care was taken it would’ve looked very nice. I have something very similar, but it is a mixture of the same black and wood.
    I generally disapprove of electric screwdrivers because I think its just plain lazy and they tend to strip the screw heads needlessly. If it has a torque, then maybe I will forgive you.
    Seriously, though, I like your work and your presentation.
