great video, thanks for sharing. what grit did you use to sand the IPE

Hi there! What grit do you use for sanding the teak furniture? Also what’s the best brighter you like to use? Love your videos!

This is a great video. I have an acaica wood patio set (1 large table, 6 chairs - sits under shade with no rain exposure) and it looks terrible due to years of neglect from the home's prior owner. It looks almost like the demo chair in the video. While the set looks terrible, its rock solid. if I were in CA, I would hire you but in FL. Would be be kind to perhaps recommend a few products I can use as a DIYer? Ie the the "brightener", penetrating oil? I seen some videos that with teak oil (sand and apply oil), however, they are not as amazing looking as what you have done here. Thanks in advance.

You're correct, probably Teak. Ipe turns silver when left natural, just like Purple Heart. Ipe has lots of different names depending on where in South America it comes from. Most commonly referred to as Brazilian Walnut. Class A Fire Rated and makes a great deck, but high maintenance.

Good explanation of the process but for us novice DIYers it would be helpful to know what kind of penetrating oil you're using. I've heard boiled linseed oil is good but not sure if that's what you're using. Should one coat be sufficient or multiple?

Lovely work - looks stunning.

This looks great Tim!

I live in Northern NJ (zip code 07110). Can you recommend a refinisher in my area?

What's your point?

Thanks not IPE. I'm sure!!. IPE is a south American WALNUT. When stripped it has a much darker tone. It's probably teak.

Question. I have a 1981 contemporary. The owners painted their cedar T and G siding. We're measuring whether we can replace the siding with TM wood, or if we can remove and refinish the 1" CVG cedar. We already know we want to remove it at least to add a rain screen. Thanks for your advize.

Is it required to clean on top of an indoor rug?!😂

Absolutely love your video! Thank you so much! Best video on the topic . Is there an easy way of sanding I’m dreading that step. And which sander should I buy

What kind of stain and clear you used?

I learned so much. What product are you using? Researching I have seen using a sealer is being recommended instead of teak oil . Is that what you are using?

What’s the oil you use?

Whats the name of the products you used?

Very beautiful at the end btw

Is there a way to tone a wood panel that is much different than the others to the naked eye?

Best explanation of the entire process and rationale behind each step I’ve seen so far. Very well done!

What penetrating oil do you recommend?

Did you refinish the inside and in between too?

Very nice work. Like it. Can it also be protected against UV light?

Hi! I have rough cut cedar lap siding that is stained and sealed a medium brown. I want a modern black house look but don’t want to paint. Do you have any experience with staining cedar black? I’ve also been looking into pine tar. Either way I think I need to fully sand the house, correct? I’m in the PNW so not a lot of sun exposure.

All for the low price of $19,999.00 Good job guys.

Awesome work, nice job 👍

What grit sand paper do you recommend? Thanks for posting this video!

this is super helpful. The sellers of our house painted their ipe deck with a cheap latex paint. We discovered the ipe after some of the paint peeled off and want to bring it back to life. Unfortunately, there is a lot left to remove that wont peel easily off. Do you recommend sanding or using a paint stripper to get this latex paint off the ipe?

So how much would it cost for a arm chair to be redone

Did you charge $20,000 or $30,000?

What is the product

Hi! Love this.. what brightener did you use?

I was wondering what type of finish do you guys use? Is it a water base or oil base ? And if it's an oil base how long does it take for it to dry between coats ?

I'm considering Ipe or Cumaru for a deck outside. Northern California. Is Ipe more or less work to maintain in your opinion? I prefer the Ipe look but like the affordability of Cumaru.

Wow… What an amazing transformation! 👍👍

I'm watching this video because I just purchased a house with 100% cedar clapboard siding. It looks like it's in need of a refresh, but my house is very large, with some very high walls. Imagine if the entire house in this video was covered in cedar siding, and you start to get the picture. I'm thinking wash and seal is the way to go in my case. I can't imagine how much it would cost to do a complete re-finish like this.

Is all that done in one day?

I’m asking the same. What number grit did you use?

I want to use ipe and do your method but what is the maintenance for this stain? I have seen other videos where the ipe goes to grey. I am afraid to use ipe if its going to grey out every year. And once it goes grey i dont think you can put the stain on top. You have resand again right?

Is there a totally flat finish for these Tim? Don’t want any sheen.

nice work

What a great video! Thank you 😊

What grit paper did you sand with and why the brightner?

Hey Tim your work looks amazing. Im in a micro rainforest in western NC 100+ inches of rain. is there a specific product you recommed? we have used oil based sealer 2 years in a row but now its basically all turned very dark and need to be sanded down .

Thank you for this great video! We have the same furniture & it was in need of refinishing. You made it look easy & our set is now ready for summer on our new patio. Wasn't going to put the unfinished on the new patio! :)

I cleaned with deck cleaner stripped and im left with a black stain like surface across the whole garage door. sand it?

Can I use this product on pressure treated pine deck?

Hi Tim, I watched your video about restoring Jarrah furniture and wondered if you could answer a couple of questions please. I had already washed & jet washed my furniture and about to sand when I found your video, The next stage would be using 'wood brightener' but because I live in the UK I'm not sure what we call that, I have used Rustin's Wood Bleach before, which is a "two pack bleaching kit for wood based on stabilised Hydrogen Peroxide" and wondered if the wood brightener you use would be the same chemical? Also would any oil based wood sealer be suitable for the final coat? Thanks for the video it was really useful and has made me really happy that I am the owner of some Jenson Jarrah garden furniture which is looking sad but is still in solid condition despite being over 20 years old.

Good work, brother!

Love it! What grit do you primarily use on Ipe? And any reason you prefer the 1/4 sheet sander over the random orbit sanders or just trying to avoid swirls?
