Coffee table restoration


This Coffee table, as you can see is in very bad condition, it looks like it has been very badly touched up with what looks like the wrong colours.

I stripped off the old finish back to the wood, thankfully the surface was in good condition, then I had to stain match the colour with the base, and for a durable finish, I sprayed over the surface with several coats of semi-matt lacquer. 

The customer was really amazed at the outcome. 










It's best to strip off the old surface, to avoid adhesion problems between one finish and another.
Thanks for visiting my Blogsite.
