@refurbishedish I wasn’t sure if this was salvageable, but one thing about me…I’m always gonna at least TRY! Comment the word “LINK” for a list of everything I used! Here’s the process: ➡️ Sand everything down with 120 grit ➡️ Strip any hard-to-sand areas with @kleanstripproducts acetone ➡️ Fill any chipped or missing veneer with @mohawkfinishing epoxy putty ➡️ Sand that smooth with @surfprepsanding 120 grit ➡️ Hand sand the whole piece (with the grain) with 220 to smooth out the wood grain ➡️ Spray a layer of @zinsser dewaxed shellac to bring out the natural color of the wood grain ➡️ Use @mohawkfinishing blendal sticks to color match the filled areas, paying attention to any color variations or patterns in the surrounding wood grain ➡️ Spray a light coat of @mohawkfinishing rattle can toner to further blend those repairs and then seal with @mohawkfinishing lacquer ➡️ Mix your own sprayable toner with a 50/50 blend of dewaxed shellac and denatured alcohol. Add transtint dyes to tint it to a color closely matching your piece. ➡️ Spray as many light coats as you’d like to get your desired color (I did 4 coats) ➡️Let that dry and then spray two coats of @generalfinishes Enduro top coat. ➡️ Don’t forget to show the drawers and drawer slides some love with a furniture balm! I used @arlington.woodworks Drop any questions you have in the comments!
