Was planning on starting with 80 grit and finishing with 220. Didn't know whether I should mess with chemicals to help aid the process or not. No way to replace it, it's an older piece that belonged to my great-grandparents and I'm trying to restore it for my mom. I have used some stuff that is orange from home depot...dont remember exact name. Worked pretty good at removing layers of old paint and such...lot of work though... |

its not the greatest...but is safer than some of the harsher chemicals to use inside. Especially with the kiddos around...but yes...its better than the gatorade bucket.....depending on whats inside of said bucket?....

Made it work. Bought some stuff and most of the stain and oil came off fairly easily. Sanded it down with 80 grit, followed by 100 grit, and then finished it with 220 grit and then ran some fine steel wool over the top. Put on the first coat of new stain last night and it came out pretty good. Will work on it some more tonight. That doesn't sound any fun at all.....I'll never buy a house again, screw all that! |

 Pick any spot along this 350+ mile coastline. according to some, it's all the same. |
