How do I know if my wood furniture is worth refinishing?

• <div><p>Telling the difference between <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-clean-wood-furniture.htm">high-quality wood furniture</a> and lower-quality pieces is challenging, but there are a few sign that indicate whether your furniture is worth repairing:</p><ul><li><p>Push your fingernail into an inconspicuous section of the wood. If it doesn’t leave a dent, it’s likely hardwood and is well worth a repair.</p></li><li><p>Unzip the bottom of couches to look for the structural components. If they’re made of wood rather than particle board, it’s likely worth refinishing.</p></li><li><p>Ask a local furniture repair technician. A reputable professional will let you know if you’re better off replacing rather than refinishing your specific item.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: How do you remove cloudy film from a wood table?

• <div><p>A cloudy film on top of a wooden surface usually means either the incorrect cleaner was used or there is polish buildup. You&rsquo;ll need to start over again and remove the surface cleaner with a damp rag and some water and dish soap. Be careful not to leave the wood surface wet as this could cause water damage. </p></div>

Q: How do I maintain built-in furniture?

• <div><p>Clean regularly, avoid overloading shelves, and address scratches or dents promptly.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to refinish a table?

• <div><p>It takes the average person four to eight days to refinish a table. This sounds long, but the work time is only two to 10 hours. If you have prior experience, each step, including dipping, stripping, sanding, staining, painting, and sealing, can take just 30 minutes to complete. The wait time between each step results in a longer total time. </p></div>

Q: Do you have to apply polyurethane to butcher block countertops?

• <div><p>No, you don't have to apply polyurethane to butcher block countertops. Polyurethane sealant is a long-lasting finish for a butcher block counter, but its application also requires thoroughly sanding the surface multiple times. Other materials, such as mineral oil, require less work but must be applied more frequently.</p></div>

Beautiful refinishing job. Got color just right, not too glossy so grain of wods shows itself off nicely. I appreciate Andrews' attention to detail, such as not only polishing aged brass feet on pedestal base but also adding teflon sliders to raise them up slightly so metal won't scratch floor.
