Can wood stain be removed without sanding?

• <div><p>Wood stain remover should remove most, if not all, of that wood stain on its own. While sanding can be a great final step, especially if you’re planning to paint or restrain the wood, it isn’t always required. Following the first three steps of this process can leave you with beautiful results. </p></div>

Q: Should I even bother to ship my bedroom furniture?

• <div><p>Whether it is <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/should-i-ship-furniture-or-buy-new-when-moving.htm">worth it to ship your bedroom furniture</a> depends on your priorities, but it can be hard to decide. You should ship your bedroom furniture if the pieces have sentimental or antique value and if it will make you happy to have them in your new home. But if your mattress or box spring is worn out (the average lifespan of a bed is seven to ten years), it's probably not worth the money or effort to ship if you&rsquo;re moving somewhere where bedroom furniture is readily available. </p></div>

Q: What should I do if I spill wood refinishing oil?

• <div><p>If you spill wood refinishing oil, wipe up the liquid quickly without spreading the stain and then use soap and water or a stain remover to get rid of the spot. Since the product is oil based, using a detergent like dish soap or a thinner like <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/paint-thinner-vs-mineral-spirits.htm">mineral spirits</a> will help take out the stain. You may need to repeat this process multiple times to remove the stain.</p></div>

Q: Can you permanently seal butcher block countertops?

• <div><p>You can certainly seal butcher block countertops, but not permanently. Due to the nature of the materials, it will require resurfacing down the line. This is true no matter what you use to seal the countertop, including polyurethane and mineral oil. Polyurethane will last until the countertop is damaged in some way, and mineral oil should be reapplied every two to three months. To maximize the longevity of the polyurethane sealer, apply two coats. </p></div>

Q: Does wood stain go bad?

• <div><p>Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years. </p></div>

David Moving Co. did a fabulous job! Moving is never easy but they were professional and helpful. From the management to the movers, I could not have asked for more and I don't think any other company would have prepped my furniture for transport as well as they did. Totally satisfied!

Company was very easy to contact and set up appointment. Cleaners did a professional job of moving all furniture, cleaning and sealing, and then replacing furniture. I will use them again and recommend their service to others.
