What is the difference between wood putty and wood filler?

• <div><p>When browsing the hardware store, you may wonder about <a href="https://angi.com/articles/wood-putty-vs-filler.htm">wood putty versus wood filler</a>. Wood putty is made with plastic adhesive, whereas wood filler is made from sawdust or wood products. </p><p>The main difference is that people use wood filler to fix the interior portions of wood. Wood putty contains chemicals that could damage the inside of wood, so it's best for exterior sections. If the crack or hole goes into the middle of the lumber, it's the right product for the job.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to refinish furniture?

• <div><p>For small, simple pieces that aren&rsquo;t antiques, a professional furniture refinisher can usually refinish a piece in <b>two to three hours</b>, while larger pieces&mdash;like bed frames and full dining sets&mdash;could take <b>several days</b>. Your refinishing professional should be able to give you an estimated timeline for the work before getting started so that you can plan to be without your furniture during the process. Antique furniture might require additional time and take a week or more to refinish, as they require special care to avoid damage.</p></div>

Q: What if the dirt doesn’t come off the furniture with the vinegar, water, and dish soap mixture?

• <div><p>Sometimes you will need a stronger cleaning solution to thoroughly clean furniture before painting. It&rsquo;s best to start with a mild solution to avoid damaging the surface, especially if it is an antique piece. If you need to use a stronger mixture, try a commercial cleaner or mineral spirits. Before applying any solution, do a test patch on an inconspicuous area so you don&rsquo;t risk damaging the finish.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain my bed frame?

• <div><p>Regularly check and tighten bolts, avoid overloading, and inspect for wear.</p></div>

Q: What types of furniture repairs do professionals handle?

• <div><p>Pros cover many fixes, from upholstery renewals to joint reinforcement.</p></div>
