UN-PAINTING A VINTAGE CHEST - AMAZING FURNITURE RESTORATION -no words- Surprising wood grain!
ฝัง

- This dresser was drenched in multiple layers of very, very thick paint! I think they used exterior latex house paint on it! I was absolutely SHOCKED to see what was under all that paint!
I used traditional paint remover AND a heat gun to remove the paint in this complete furniture restoration. Watch the video to see which method I found to work the best.
I got this used and abused dresser at an auction for only $5. Unfortunately, I did not realize that is was so stinky until the ride home when I had to open all my car windows due to the malodorous fumes coming from my back seat! Gasp! Gasp! Fortunately, I was able to rid this abused little dresser not only of it's heavy coat of paint but also it bad odor!
I hope you enjoy the video and this AMAZING TRANSFORMATION! This one really surprised me!

It turned from an ugly duckling to a swan! The grain is spectacular. Thank you for all your skill and hard work.
I love how you don’t paint over beautiful wood grain. 👍❤
Thanks for another great video. I appreciate captions instead of listening to someone go on and on. Yours are short and to the point. If I want to watch a movie I'll go to Netflix.
Beautiful transformation. I'll never understand some people's need to paint over such gorgeous wood!
I agree!
Especially covering it with green. Yeccch!
Cause they want to. lol
I agree totally. The dark cover makes it look like cheap wood that needs to be covert.
But the work is magnificently done. Compliments 👍
They want to match it with the curtains in the bedroom …. 🙄 silly billies they are !
Wow. I can’t imagine why someone would paint over a fabulous grain like that. It’s stunning.
I agree!!!! But then the original stain did not make the grain show up like the walnut stain I used.
Те людии, которые покрасили такое чудо простой краской, были слепые?!!! Как можно было такое сделать? Это же вандализм! Как хорошо, что вы вернули эту мебель к жизни!!! Замечательная работа!!!
Wow. The wood grain is absolutely beautiful after your restoration.
The wood grain on this is absolutely incredible!! I LOVE the stain color you chose! Amazing job!! ☺️☺️👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks so much! 😊 I got it on sale at Walmart! Who knew? I have not used Rustoleum stain before but I needed a stain that I could finish in 1-2 hours time. It worked perfectly.
A first class restoration. How anyone (including my own mother, who painted my beautiful burl walnut dressing table & wardrobe because they didn't match a painted wash stand) could ruin such beauty, I will never know. Thank you for sharing the result of your hard work with us !
Love the story! Thanks for watching!
Now its an heirloom. Beautiful!!!!!!
The relief the wood felt when you stripped the horrid paint work-much better-worth a million.
I am certain it took a deep breath and said "Awwwwww" Thanks for watching.
I love it. You really cared for the piece. It was given a chance for rebirth.
My mom had a beautiful 5 bedroom house, built around the civil war, 10 ft high ceilings. Chestnut hard wood working throughout the house, mop boards, arches for big doorways, stair cases with a turn. Hardwood floors. Guess what they did with all this magnificent wood. You got it . White paint. Over the years, we took some of it off the stair case and some others small areas. Crazy. Beautiful home!
Thank goodness it had SO many layers of paint; that's how it was protected for so long! Thanks to you, it can now have another 50 years, of love and admiration!
You are SOOOO right! It was just waiting for me to come along and save it from drowning in the paint!
The wood grain is beautiful. Who would have thought that was under all those layers of paint! You did an amazing transformation on this piece of furniture.
Thank you! Cheers!
Very Beautiful!!!!💖💖💖💖💖
No inane sounda... great!!!! Fabulous work!
Excellent job. Sensational grain. Whoever covered it up with paint should be ashamed of themselves.
I agree! The grain is spectacular!
It’s nice that you think as much of the inside/back of the drawer as you do the front/outside of the drawer. That woodgrain was gorgeous and almost reminded me when you use the burl of a tree. Love the finish look!
Thank you for noticing!
It's so beautiful !!. You just brought this beautiful thing back to life !
Oh,Yes! It works for me. Thank you for saving it and a little of me too. Bird song at the end says it all .
LOL! thanks!
I don’t remember seeing such beautiful wood! Great job!
thank you for this ASMR style no talk/no music video. I really love just watching the work and hearing the worksounds imagining I'm right there with you in the shop. Stunning results as always such wonderful work!
You're so welcome!
You do know you could do this yourself. Watching someone work is very different that actually doing it.
@@penelopepurr *You do know* there are people in this world that are either mentally and/or physically disabled or simply don't have the money and/or physical space to do something like this. Watching someone work is at least getting them close to the actual thing
Wow, that woodgrain is absolutely gorgeous! What a beautiful piece! Nicely done!
Thank you- I agree!
That is a great transformation. It's good to see this quality of work without specialist tools. Thank you.
Wow!!! What once was old is new again.
Well said!
That woodgrain really is something! It needed to be highlighted, not hidden. Great job as usual! 🙂👍
Thanks 👍
You did a wonderful job on the chest of drawers. Thank you for saving a piece of history.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for adding the after. I would not have thought those pieces were the same. Amazing
Sorry Leslie- my error that you could not see the "after" in the original video I posted but I got the video fixed. Jeez I hate the learning curve learning new editing software!
I'm so impressed that you not only stained the ENTIRE drawers, but poly'd the whole drawer as well!!!!
Thanks Sheila. My clients are always impressed and it does not take much more work.
I liked how this turned out. The wood grain was amazing. The only issue I have is the staining inside the drawers. I don’t believe I have ever seen that until I started watching you. I just worry that the stain would rub off on any cloths you put in there. I think you put something on top of the stain…will that prevent the stain from bleeding on cloths? Most dressers I’ve seen leave the inside stain free. Anyway, it still looked pretty. Thanks for sharing.
She sealed with a polyurethane and then a wax on top of that so that there would be no danger of any bleed through onto clothes.
If you watch the video closely, I put 2 coats of polyurethane on the inside and outside of the drawers. I put 5 coats of poly on the drawer fronts and outside of the dresser. This chest of drawers had a terrible smell so the staining and poly certainly got rid of any possible lingering smell. However, I find my clients really are impressed when I stain the drawers. I have gotten splinters from the inside of drawers and snagged clothing/hose (yes some women still wear hose). It also cleaned up all the paint they had left on the drawers sides, etc.
@@FurnitureFlippingForProfit , I thought I saw you put something over the stain but wasn't sure what it was. Thanks for letting me know. It did turn out beautifully. You do a fantastic job. 😊
We SO respect the wood. whenever you can!
I agree!
What a treasure you found!! I bet that gave you so much pleasure and satisfaction to work on! I hope you kept it for yourself. The wood grain is to die for.
You hit the nail on the head. I will be listing it on FBM. I too loved the wood grain.
This turned out to be a diamond. The grain is amazing! Fantastic...thanks for sharing,
Thank you very much!
Yeah, that turned out really nice. The one side of the cabinet that you said looked like it had faces in it, as you panned down, it kinda looked like there was a puppy in the grain! *Gorgeous!*
It's so soothing to see the layers of paint coming off, whether with the stripper or the heat gun.
WOW!!!!
AN AMAZING TRANSFORMATION
SUCH BEAUTIFUL WOOD GRAIN TOO
Thank you! Cheers!
The grain was spectacular. Im not opposed to sme of the painted furniture I've seen. But it is hard to beat natural! I also see quite a few people cutting off any curvef features along the bottom of furniture thinking it looks more modern w/ angular lines. I was so happy you left the soft curving design along the bottom edge of the sides and front of your chest. ines along the bottom of your piece.
The wood almost looks like tiger maple! Beautiful!
Thank you! Cheers!
Umm the rain sound is everything 😍😍😍
LOL!
Wow amazing. Like turning the ugly duckling into a handsome prince lol. Great job.
Amazing transformation.. The grain on top with all the little faces looks like Dante's Inferno.. lol Thanks for sharing
Yes it does- kind of creepy but so cool!
This was some of the most beautiful and interesting grain pattern I’ve ever seen.
I agree!
Who would of thought there was such beautiful grain hidden under all that mess of paint.
I KNOW!!!! Boy was I surprised!
Ich bin Begeistert das sieht ganz toll aus weiter so.
Really WISH a transparent neutral stain colour could be used instead of the dark and dreary stain...it would show the wood in it's original beautiful state and look really upbeat!
Thanks so much for the no-music presentation.
You are welcome JR- the birds and shop sounds seem to be much more popular with my viewers. Thanks so much for watching!!!
That is a superb restoration
I couldn't believe the way the wood grain showed up with staining. It really was like majic! Beautiful job!.
Thank you very much! It was like magic!
Wow, what a difference. Looks amazing!
WOW! A lot of hard work and again so worth it! The wood grain is phenomenal!!! Who knew
that beauty was under all the gunk! Fantastic job!! 👍👏💐🌹
I agree! thanks for watching!
So beautiful, who new it could look this rich....
really!!!
What a lovely piece of work FFFP.
GORGEOUS! This was a furniture spa treatment! The dark line on the top disappeared! You are amazing! Thanks so much for sharing.
Yes I too was surprised that the 2 dark areas completely disappeared. I was glad I did bleach it since it was not needed.
Wow that really pop's now, look's great and a great restoration, have a nice day. Brian UK !!!.

A gorgeous turn around. The birds are nice too! 👌
Thank you. I was really amazed!
Wow! Just wow!❤
Очень понравилось, что показали с какими растворами работали.
Спасибо, что делитесь своим мастерством.
Пожалуйста!
Seeing this was your first time using the heat gun I think you should be a little nice to yourself and not call the results "burned". Scorched, maybe, but it still worked perfectly. As always you gave me much food for thought. Thanks for a great video!
LOL! I like the term scorched much better! Thanks!
Gosh she is pretty! 😍
I agree!
Lookin' good!
Gorgeous work.
Кайф! Приятная, лаконичная работа
Благодарю вас!
Beautiful just Beautiful
Thank you! 😊
Totally amazing.
Wow! Beautiful job
Absolutely incredible make over.
Thanks Jane!
Gorgeous 😊
Stunning! One of the best restorations I've seen. *****
Wow, thank you!
I would bet you couldn't find a piece of furniture today that made of that kind of genuine wood in your average store that sells similar pieces, (looks wise). Any genuine wood pieces would be out of most peoples budgets. It's a wonder you could look at the mess it was and see such potential. Excellent work done with more effort than many would be willing to give.
Thanks so much! I am glad you appreciate my work!!!
Wow at the gorgeous grain on this piece! You brought out it's hidden beauty!
Who knew! I was so surprised!
Wood was beautiful really nice piece
Yes it was ! I loved it!
Much better!
Heat guns are awesome tools! We’ve removed more stickers, and very large adhesive strips from our camper refrigerator. It has this wicker-like texture which looked great on the cabinets, but not the fridge. The Krud Cutter helped me get 3 layers of wallpaper off (40 years old) in one of the bedrooms in our house too. Good stuff, that! 👍🏼
Some years ago at our Local Library branch there as a children's table about 4ft in Diameter. I was asked to refinish it by the librarian. Covered in several layers, paint. When I stripped it was a solid Maple table. I was able to get the distressed marks out and refinished it with several coats of poly. The table turned out to be from a high end producer. It even had a label. It came out so nice that the Head of the Library made a special trip 20 miles just to see refinished table. I left about 3 years later and still look in great shape.
Thanks for sharing! Polyurethane provides a hard durable finish that will last for years with no maintenance. what is not to like!
beautiful....I love this one
I love restoring things and the big excitement for me is to see what it looks like stipped but this piece is awesome, beautiful and definately a thrill to work on.
You and me both!
Nice work! One tip if I may; to lessen the problem of solids at the bottom of the can you could flip it upside down for about 1/2 hour before use. Just make sure the lid is tight and won't leak.
Great tip! Thanks!
I LOVE Krud Kutter. I learned about from Tom Johnson's TH-cam channel and have turned 5 people onto it. If you haven't seen Tom's channel, you are missing out on one of the best restoration artists have seen or met. His videos are like this one, well organized and very informative, but he talks. I have never seen anyone with such an understanding of wood! His father was a woodworker and so is his brother. He works on pieces as old as the 1600s. Thanks for this great video and the chance to see someone using a NON-TOXIC cleaner!
Thanks Cm. Yes, I like Tom's channel as well!
What an absioutely gorgeous dresser the grain is phenomenal. I just love it so much.
I can't agree more. It is really unique. I do not know what kind of wood it is. It is a fairly soft wood.
The wood grain is so beautiful, such a transformation. Xx
I agree Juliana- it is really gorgeous! I was so shocked as I revealed it with the stain!!!
Was expecting some inlaid work under all that paint 😅 . Nevertheless, did not disappoint...what a spectacular display of the woodgrain highlighted by your choice of stain. Lovely piece.
Thanks for watching Patricia.
Wonderful first class
Thanks Andrew!
