Refurbishing Old Wooden Tables
Why Refurbish an Old Table?
What Do You Need?
Before you start the process of refurbishing your old wooden table, it is important to make sure you have all the right materials. You will need sandpaper, varnish or paint, a cloth, and a brush. You may also want to purchase wood filler and wood glue to help with any repairs that need doing.
Preparing the Table
Making Repairs
Now that the table is prepared, you can start making any necessary repairs. If there are any cracks or chips in the table, now is the time to fill them in with wood filler. Once the filler has dried, sand it down to make sure it is completely smooth. If there are any loose joints, you can fix them with wood glue.
Painting or Varnishing the Table
When you’re happy with the repairs, you can start painting or varnishing the table. If you’re using paint, use a brush to apply it evenly to the surface of the table. If you’re using varnish, use a cloth to apply it and make sure you cover the entire surface. Let the paint or varnish dry before applying a second coat.
Finishing Touches
Once you’ve given the table a couple of coats of paint or varnish, you can start adding some finishing touches. You could add some decorative features to the table, such as handles or knobs. You could also add some decorative trim to the edges of the table. Finally, you can add some furniture wax to the table to help protect it and keep it looking its best.
Refurbishing an old wooden table can be a great way to give it a new lease of life. With the right materials and a bit of patience, you can make your old table look as good as new.
