The cerusing process we demonstrate in this video can transform your dated oak finish to a new fresh, clean look. Side-step the hard work of a traditional refinish; with all the time spent stripping, sanding and cleaning up the mess.
Watch how we take a typical kitchen cabinet upper through the steps needed to complete this magical transformation.
Products Used:
~Sherwin Williams Wall & Wood Primer
~ML Campbell Furniture Glaze
~Minwax Polyurethane
~Nylon Paint Brush
~Mini Foam Roller
I’m a hobbyist/ amateur woodworker and I’m blown away by these cerusing videos. I like the idea of taking something outdated and creating something completely new and fashionable. Top notch.
Awesome, thank you! Wes
We were a military family, with lack of money, we improved every house we lived in, DIY and low cost was only way to go!
Fashionable? Who decides what fashionable? Have in your home what YOU decide to have and stay away from everything fashionable as this only shows you don't have your own style. Don't be afraid to have what you like, be strong minded and wait till others start copying you!!!😂
But this video is nice, presented by a kind sounding man.
I just heard in the UK, we have to repaint our kitchens dark green!!!
So, after everyone has had their kitchen repainted grey, now, GREY IS OUT, we were told and only GREEN IS IN, we were told.
I don't badge, keep my kitchen unpainted and I wait till everyone strips through all these colours, see the grey and green, to get their unpainted look!!
And I'd be laughing and laughing when someone says : " so you had your kitchen stripped already?"
Repent to Jesus Christ “Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did.”

When you mentioned Bounty, it warmed my heart! Bounty and wood. My sweet little daddy used Bounty all the time. He would shine the woodwork in the house, and he would be so proud of the shine. He loved making everything shine and made everything beautiful. He was very meticulous. Just thought I'd share this with you, I love your technique it's so beautiful!
Hi...I really enjoyed your comment, thanks for sharing! Wes
Oh wow…this finish is beautiful! So many people will rip out an entire kitchen of oak cabinets and could get another 10+ years out of good solid cabinets with an updated look!! Perfect…thank you!!🥰
Or believe it or not you can just use Sheet Rock Mud, float them out like doing a patch on a sheet rock wall, sand them down and you have perfect cabinets to paint.
My daughter just primed and painted her kitchen cabinets from that honey oak to icy white and they're beautiful. It took her a week to do it herself, but the end results are gorgeous
That is awesome!
Thank you for this. I was wondering about how long it would take.
What colour paint did she use
pictures...... would to see the results
What is icy white? Does it have a blue tint?
I like my golden coloured oak, thank you. The white, not nearly as much. But, I still have my mother's oak dining set, that was blonde oak, before my day. No doubt it would have been very pretty with the original shade.
That was my first reaction, too.
I LIKE my golden oak. That pickled white look is part of a fading trend, and is as boring as the "color" grey that has permeated our world.
I am definitely NOT a DIYer, but I respect those of you who are because this is way too much work (for me). Hats off to you who are willing to do it.
Beautiful. All kinds of character possible with combinations of base coat, glaze and finish. Painting wood is not, in my opinion, a sin or a crime. We should feel liberated in choosing the surface that suits and pleases us. It’s a personal experience. If someone doesn’t agree, they’re free to choose with their own pieces. Different strokes, folks. ✌️
Well said...thanks for your comment. Wes
Agree with you 100 %. You do you in 2022 !
That looks great!!
I just can't get enough of these videos of cerusing. Such a unique look & so many options for colors. thanks Wes!
You are certainly welcome...glad you are enjoying them. Wes
Thank you for the running commentary, explaining the decision making process and reasons behind it. Wes you are the best. Love watching your videos and learning.
Wes reminds me of my grandpa, whom I miss dearly. Thank you for the lesson Wes! I’ll be following all your lessons from here on.
Hi...that is very kind and something I always love to hear. Glad you joined our community. Wes
i love your relaxed, calm way you go about your project. and how very encouraging you are! THANK YOU for the inspiration and the information too.
You are so welcome! Thank you very much for visiting our channel. Wes
And twenty years later people will be looking for ways to get the paint off and get back to the traditional Golden Oak look again! :)
But for now most people don’t like that color wood, it’s very cabinish And clashes with a lot of colors
@@coastaldiva Not to all of us woodworkers! The other color is icky to any woodworker. We prefer the natural color of the wood.
20 years is a long time. Maybe they will n when they do they will take it off or buy new ones
20 years itll be time to redo them anyways❤
@@floridagirl9064 oak will outlast the house with a little maintenance
So glad I made the decision to keep our oak cabinets and just update them. Come on spring, I'm ready to get started on this project!
Good for you!! Thanks for watching, Wes
Great job, Wes! I've refinished many oak pieces but haven't done cabinets yet. I have found that using old t-shirts or some other soft lint free cotton cloth for wiping off (and on) your stain works so much better than using paper towels. Lot less waste & better saturation imo. All that said you did a fantastic job in updating these cabinets.
thank you so much !!!! I am going to add a few inches to the top and put a prettier crown on the top of my cabinets before I ceruse them... but this is the answer to my questions I had...and the answer to my prayers for a new kitchen without a complete replacement !!! I am so appreciative for your listening and answering our questions Wes... again...THANK YOU for this video !!!
Thank you very much Laura for your kind words. Wes
That is EXACTLY the same cabinet I have in my kitchen! 20 year old home! This is great information....can't wait to get started! Thank you!
Glad you found this useful...good luck !! Wes
These are my exact cupboards I have been wanting to redo! Thank you so much., Wes. I am so happy I came across your channel. Your tutorials are gold. I now, finally, have the confidence to tackle this project! 🤩
You are so welcome! Glad the video has inspired, good luck with your project. Wes
Dear sir Thank you for an awesome class I have felt you as a father and a teacher when you give us all the details information. Simply you are a great teacher and I thank you so so very much 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🥰🥰
That is so very kind of you! Thank you very much for being part of the community. We have lots more coming. Wes
I can’t imagine painting over that beautiful oak!
I have golden oak cabinets and still love them. This looks great, too.
I WAS INTRIGUED WITH THIS PROCESS AS IT WAS WHAT i HAD DONE TO MY FRONT DOUBLE DOORS YEARS AGO, MYSELF. ONLY IT WAS WITHOUT THE WIRE BRUSH AS IT WAS A NEW THERMATRU DOOR, WHICH IS MADE OF FIBERGLASS, WHICH HAS A POLYSTYRENE INSULATOR IN BETWEEN. AND IT IS AMAZING HOW COOL IT KEEPS MY HOME..IT WAS WONDERFUL TO FIND THESE, AS IT DOES NOT TRANSFER THE HEAT INTO THE HOUSE. BEFORE THAT, MY HOUSE WAS AN OVEN AND EVERY TIME THE SUN WENT DOWN, IT GOT WORSE SINCE THE DOOR IS FACING THE WEST. SO, ALL IN ALL, IT WAS MY FIRST TIME TO FINISH ANYTHING AND I LOVED THE PROCESS, MUCH LIKE WHAT YOU ARE SHOWING. IT IS SO REWARDING TO SEE THE WORKS OF YOUR OWN HANDS IN THESE PROJECTS, SO THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR WEALTH OF INFORMATION. DONNA
Thank you Donna for your kind words and comment. Thanks for being part of our community. Wes
That's beautiful. I've had golden oak for years and years. Loved it then, but I'm so sick of it now. This color would look wonderful with darker hardwood floors. Great job.
Thank you very much! Wes
Not to sound like weirdo or anything but your tone and manners are very soothing and clam to anyone starting a new project.
Haha...I have heard that before. Thanks for watching. Wes
Thank you from Texas for giving me the courage to tackle my bathroom oak cabinets. I'll start soon and so excited!
Great...good luck with your vanity. I am sure it will be very nice. Wes
Without looking for it, I found the video I needed because I was thinking of painting a small cabinet that is in whitewash and giving it a nice color. You are my inspiration, your work is excellent. Thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful! View some of our other cerusing videos for additional color options.
Thank you, Wes
What a nice man. Enjoyable to watch.
I like the warm honey tones of the natural grain of many beautiful woods. Darker woods with minimal stains to bring out the grain. You can stain or paint the lesser woods and they to can be enhanced.
Nice job Wes! I see so many houses for sale with tired old golden oak cabinets that would be completely transformed and updated with this process. You're a good teacher and make the process understandable at every step from start to finish.
Thank you so very much for your kind words. Glad you found the video helpful! Wes
I enjoyed your video, you explain things very well...like a patient teacher. Your voice is also easy to listen to. I don't have the strength or physical ability to do this, yet I watched your whole video. Thanks for sharing your skills
Thank you for sharing your expertise! This is gorgeous!!!
You are so welcome...thank you for visiting. Wes
A lot of people will be bummed out when golden oak comes back in style (any day now). Not me, my house is full of it and my property value will soar. Well, that's what I'm telling myself anyway
love it, teaching my sons the trade also, yours very truly: APro Painting / Staining & Services from northern Alberta Canada
That's awesome...thanks for sharing. Wes
I had those golden oak cabinets - I washed them done really well with TSP then applied Mission Oak stain with satin urethane - it took so well - made them darker and got rid of that bland yellow - then a took a black paint and kind of darkened the edges, corners & crevices of the panels - sort of like a glaze - they came out so well - I couldn’t veer too far off course because all of the trim and moldings in the house are oak, but those cabinets were just too yellow - and they have so much more dimension now - I love them
B E A U T I F U L! 😍😍…who knew you could get rid of that date honey oak 😝 so easily! 🤣😂 Thank you soo much for this!
I’m going to do this on my hubby’s oak furniture he won’t let me get rid of from his bachelor days. I call that special shade of oak “old school lover boy oak”. 😆😁😂
Sounds like a perfect solution. Go for it! Thanks, Wes
Wow! You are my friend already, Never thought of using wire brush... really enjoyed watching and listening to all your process without speeding up...what I s vinyl primer? I've painting cabinets for long time..wish i would had seen this before
You are an absolute professional and a great teacher. You my new best friend!!!
Wow, thank you...I really appreciate the comment AND the compliment! Wes
I love my 20 year old golden oak cabinets
Wow! Really inspirational. I have an old pine dresser inherited from my mum and haven’t known what to do with it as I do want to get rid of it. Your video has given me a wonderful project to work on whilst keeping my mum close by. Thank you ☺️.
Very nice thought...you might want to check out our video as we test 11 different kinds of wood for this process, including pine. Thank you.

Thank you so much for your videos. They are exactly what I was looking for and such a big help! As a teacher, I can tell you, you do a fantastic job breaking down the tasks and explaining things so well. You make it easy to follow. Thank you so much.
You are so welcome...thank you for your kind words. Wes 😀
Anything considered outdated is that in only certain people’s minds. I love oak and would give my eye teeth to have real oak cabinets instead of the homemade plywood cabinets put in this farmhouse in 1965. But at least they are newer than the cabinets in my laundry room that were built in 1932. Remember to be grateful for what you have. If you can change it, fine. Just don’t talk down other’s choices. They may not be able to afford to change things or they really like it the way it is.
MY GOODNESS THAT'S SO BEAUTIFUL TOO !!! thanks for showing how to do the side cabinets for a kitchen !! I appreciate the tutorial!!
You are so welcome!
Hi Wes 👋 It’s been a pleasure watching you work on this cabinet! You’ve made something that felt so overwhelming feel doable now 😊 I really appreciate it! Thank you!!!
Glad you enjoyed it...thanks for being part of our community! Wes
I LOVE YOUR IDEAS WITH WOOD AND PAINT, WES. I JUST WAS NOT IMPRESSED WITH THE 'PINKISH' TONE THAT THE THIS LAST GLAZE WAS LEAVING BEHIND. IT LOOKS OKAY NOW, BUT AT FIRST, I HAD MY DOUBTS. I HAD TO LAUGH AT YOUR INTRO, THAT WAS HILARIOUS.
Thanks for your comment...glad you enjoyed the video Wes
Perfect timing! I have the golden oak cabinets but in the shaker style that I plan on painting in the next few weeks. Had planned on just white but I may have to try this instead! (But with a gray glaze) Also my oldest son’s name is Wes. Great video, thank you!
Yes!! Please share your photos with me. I’m also wanting to see how your colors come out.
Thank you Christy...good luck with your project, I am sure it will be great! Wes
@Christy Michelle ...how did they come out with gray glaze? Would love to see!
Thank you for your very simple and thorough explanation. I found this to be the most straightforward video I've found so far!
I am glad you enjoyed it. Thank you very much for visiting the channel. Wes
THIS IS PERFECT! I have been stressing over how to get this finish for my new home and this was the perfect set of instructions to help me get 'er done the 'hand-made' way! THANKS SO MUCH!!!
You are very welcome...glad I could be of help. Thanks. Wes
@@WoodworkingWithWes what kind of wire brushes dod you use?
That is exactly the color i want for my stair railings. Thank you so much for the tutorial....cant wait to try it.
Holy moly! As great as this looks it would take me a good 6 months (or more!) to do all my kitchen cabinets myself!
Thanks for sharing! This video was easy to watch and follow along. I'm working up the courage to paint the bathroom vanity.
Glad you enjoyed it...test the backside of a drawer to see if you like the results. Thanks for watching. Wes
You’re so awesome to do these videos! Looks fantastic! I can’t wait to do this! Waiting for the humidity to go way down! Will have to be a winter project! 😀 thanks Wes! You’re the best! I could listen to your voice all day!
Thanks Jessica...it would be a fun fall project. Good luck. Wes
Your Hired!!! I Absolutely love the new color!!! Thank you for your video, I'm going to try this!!!!!
You are so welcome...thank you very much for watching! Good luck, Wes
So the grain shows through the primer.
Wes, Thank you for your time in this video, love the process and the end result. Will give this a try. Beautiful job!
Have fun...also you might want to check out our latest video with what I have since found to be the best glaze for cerusing.

Thank you for such a kind comment...glad you have joined our community. Wes
@@WoodworkingWithWes you’re welcome
Genius! I know wished I had oak cabinets but I bet this would also work on furniture. The wire brush made it work!!
It does!😀
Thank you for this! That's the style of cabinet doors that are in my kitchen and I really appreciate you showing the process on the door with that arch adding a bit more complication. I love this finish! My brain is buzzing with all the color combination possibilities!
Edit: scoop edge, cathedral arch. Got it. Good to know for reference. Thanks!
You are so welcome! Glad you enjoyed the video. Wes
Would this work with a blue or green stain. Thank you for this. Great lesson. Do you have more.
@@joannefreeman3573 I was wondering the same thing
Same here, I like be my Oak cabinets, they were very expensive & I’m not changing them at all.
@@joannefreeman3573 Yes it would...check out our other videos on cerusing. Thanks for watching. Wes
Love it !! It looks like a Restoration Hardware finish.
Thank you very much, for this tutorial, I am amazed how you have done this, it looks lovely, you are a very good teacher.
Thanks so much 😊
Mr. Wes...thank you for this lovely project! It's fabulous..going to resee n take notes!! 😊 thanks
Wes, this is beautiful. First time I’ve seen this done. I’m impressed.
I wonder how this would look on a dresser? I was planning on doing a distressed finished on an old dresser, but I think I’m going to do this instead.
Great video! Thank you!
Hi Loretta...sounds like a great project. Let me know how it turns out. Thanks for watching. Wes
Did you complete this project ? I'm about to do the same thing
Thanks Wes for doing this. Watched the whole thing and I appreciate you explaining the steps involved. Good day
Thank you for visiting the channel. Glad you enjoyed it. Wes
I’m doing my research and plan on starting my kitchen cabinets in September.
I have never heard of this technique but very interesting.
Thank you.
Glad you liked the video...thanks for watching. Wes
i learned years ago to just tape first and then completed paint with an edger,works great
Never heard of this process but always wondered what that look was ! Great info. Love this look. So posh
Thank you so much!! Wes
An absolute pleasure watching you work please keep these video coming 🙏 thank you
Thank you! Will do!
Great video Wes. Have vanity in the garage and 80% done with the prep. Picked up the needed tips for two coats of primer and sand afterwards. Will have it done this weekend and ready to reinstall. Will tackle kitchen and laundry room after wildfire season in the PNW. This will save me $20K for kitchen remodel.
Good stuff! That is awesome!! Send me a picture when you are done. Thanks for sharing. Wes
Thank you for showing how to do this on the cabinets. I was trying to figure out how to do this without using the spray gun. This is how I want to update my 60's cabinets with out replacing the real wood cabinets.
You can do it!! Thanks for watching. Wes
This turned out great! Thanks so much for this video. I’m so looking forward to doing this on our Oak cabinets.
You are so welcome...glad it was helpful and you enjoyed it. Good luck with your project. Wes
Beautiful - Excellent demonstration ‼️
Wes, I love this cerusing technique for redoing the kitchen cabinets or other cabinets in the house. I have the same in my house although my cabinets are made from ash wood. I'm seriously thinking of doing this to my kitchen cabinets. I do have one question though & it may be a stupid question. After you've changed the color of the outside, what do you do with the color of the inside of the cabinet which is the golden oak? Do you paint it the color of the primer you put on it or what? It's impossible to ceruse the inside of the cabinets. Actually in the lower cabinets it will be impossible to even paint those areas that go back into the counter that you can never reach. I love your videos! Thank you so much for putting this detailed information out there & also responding to people's questions!
Alyson...just paint the base primer coat on the inside without glaze. Thanks for watching....good luck with your project. Wes
I love this, would like to paint kitchen cabinets white for that "farmhouse look" but counters have a lot of brown and green and floors are an orangey hardwood. Would it go? Or would you have another video on staining hardwood floors also? Thanks. 🤷
Thanks for the idea, I redid my bathroom cabinets with this method. Doesn't look like youtube lets me post links to show a picture though.
I thought it came out reasonably well. Now to work on my kitchen with it, the bathroom was more of a practice run.
I used the same primer tinted to Pearly White. I used Rust-Oleum cabinet transformations Java Brown glaze, which went on thinner so I let it soak for 5 mins before lightly wiping it off.
One panel came out a little darker because I stripped it (it was my test piece, which I used for various other stain/paint approaches). The other panels I just wiped with acetone, which isn’t quite as bad as lacquer thinner.

That is great!! Glad you had some good success. View some of our other cerusing videos for additional color options.
Thank you, Wes
Phenomenal job Wes. Will definitely consider this for my kitchen.
Absolutely gorgeous ..... your work is professional
Hi...thank you very much for your kind words! Wes
I love how it came out. Looks so contemporary!
Thank you for watching the video Nancy...glad you enjoyed watching the process. Wes
It really does. I have shaker style cabinets in my 1924 craftsman home, and am doing some updates, but don't want to lose the 1924 character... want it all to look like you just stepped back in time to 1924. I have a lot of red oak Mission style furniture in it right now... was thinking perhaps a red oak glaze ???
Wonderful video I am amazed at the finished product thank you
Golden oak is never outdated. It’s classic.
super awsome
The video is very entertaining but it would take me years to do my kitchen...
th-cam.com/video/mW0gnJYuqr0/w-d-xo.html
Destiny. I KNOW this isn't for my husband and I. We still have outside house paint 'stored' in the foyer from three YEARS ago. We got about half way...I give up.
Big kitchen the 🤔✔️
If it took you one whole day to do a cabinet, you can do ten cabinets in ten days. When you break it down that way, it doesn’t seem too bad. That’s what I intend to do. Not a rush. I don’t really care how long it takes me. As long as I don’t have to pay $3000.00 to paint my cabinets like my daughter did. Mine would probably be even more since I have more cabinets! I’m 74 years old. I have all the time in the world.😄
@@mildredjeff5024 This is an excellent way of looking at it! As long as you're not as easily distracted as I am, and stay on task you'll have a gorgeous kitchen in less than two weeks! Good luck to you. Maybe share a photo? Thanks for the sane way of looking at this chore. ;- )
Lovely but an insane amount of work!
Great job!!!❤❤❤
Having rubbed down/back to expose the grain, I find
it much quicker to apply a ‘ liming wax ‘ at that
stage. Leave few hours and the buff up .
Works a treat ! ✔️
OR you could chalk paint at that stage too, then
apply clear wax , leave few hours, then buff of etc
I agree al liming wax or white washing would’ve been easier and less time-consuming.
Orla, are you saying use liming wax instead of wire brushing? More details please! Wes- do you have an opinion on this?
Looks amazing! Love this technique, thanks for sharing ❤
ME at 1/2 hour into video - "That is going to look terrible, can't believe he calls himself a professional"!
ME at the end of the video - "Now that came out beautiful, just what I am looking for to update my outdated kitchen cabinets. This guy definitely knows what he is doing"!
Haha...that's funny!! Glad you like it, thanks for watching. Wes
I’m so impressed, it turned out so beautiful. I will try and do my coffee table. Thank for sharing your video.
You are so welcome!
I would like to see this technique using different colors. Like a white base with dark blue glaze. Or maybe yellow paint with black glaze.
Hi James...You could always do a test sample on the back side of a drawer to see what you like. Thanks. Wes
th-cam.com/video/mW0gnJYuqr0/w-d-xo.html
Just GORGEOUS ❤ thinking of doing this to an old dresser 😁
Go for it and good luck! Wes
Hi Wes! Your channel was recommended and I sure am glad 😃 You explain your steps very well and I enjoyed watching this process…and boy what a GREAT finished project! The cabinet finish is gorgeous👍🏻I’m inspired👩🏻🎨 New central NC Subscriber 🇺🇸
Awesome, thank you! Wes
Excelente maestro.. gracias... un saludo desde colombia..
Absolutely gorgeous. What kind of total time was involved in doing the set of cabinets?
Hi Doug...total time start to finish, not including drying time, was about 2 hours. Thanks for watching. Wes
@@WoodworkingWithWes that’s great in my mind it was so much longer.
Thank you so much!!!! Have decided this is how I will do it... except with grey instead of brown
Anna...that would look very nice. Good luck. Wes
@@WoodworkingWithWes Thank you!!!! You have made it possible. I will be referring to your video many times as I go. I appreciate you!
Cool effect. A polycrylic might be better for preserving the final color since it stays clear. Urethane yellows and you spent all that effort getting rid of the yellow tones.
It looks fantastic, as I have a tall boy set of draws with this Finnish that needs repainting from a big stain. Now I know how to do it, thank your so much for sharing your expert advice.
Your work and explanations are great! As someone who likes to do the minimum ( I know I shouldn’t), can you please explain why you did two coats or primer? Since you want to reveal the grain when you stain and rub a lot of the paint and stain off, why is it necessary to do the two coats of primer?
Hi Glenda...I thought I mentioned in the video that I did not get good coverage with only 1 coat of primer and so I had to do a second coat. Thanks for watching. Wes
I’m with you Glenda, if you’re going to wipe off the primer to show the grain, why 2 coats? 🤷🏻♀️ But he’s the professional 😜
@@WoodworkingWithWes ì
A lovely job Wes. Well done
OMG I totally LOVE THIS - Was going to do months ago and put on hold and just watched again and gotta do it. I would like to know what color did you tint your primer to please? There are so many different "whites" - Thank you so much
Yes, there are many colors of white. As I remember, I had it mixed to a light cream color with no specific color match or number. Thanks for watching. Wes
So different. It's beautiful!
Thanks for the comment...it's a fun technique. We have lots of cerusing videos on the channel. Wes
This looks like what I’ve seen called ‘pickled’. Would that be another process? It’s a brilliant way to light up and energize the appearance without stripping. How wonderful. I hope to find an oak piece I can have fun with like this. It’s a Wow, for sure.
As a decorative artist I’d would call it “pickled”
@@WhirlyPearly
Thanks.
Pickled is a different process
@@gypsyscometotown
Yes, thanks. I figured as much. I’ll research that at some point. I once did a lot of furniture building and refinishing of antiques. I prefer methods now that are as nontoxic as possible. Haven’t been able to tolerate VOC’s for several decades.
@@adrianekelly2966
So doing a pickled finish would be much better for you because you can use all water based products
Natural wood grain properly treated always looks better than cheap painted wood
Came out beautiful . Looks gorgeous!!!!! Love, love the color.
looks great I am going to do my kitchen and all my golden oak doors in basement. Great video
Yes my mother painted her beautiful mahogany bed white and gold in the 70s and I had pay to remove the paint and bring back the beautiful mahogany wood underneath
Looks awesome. A bit of work but well worth it. Great video.
Absolutely beautiful job! Not to mention your explanations of the whole process. I am considering re-finishing walls and ceiling in every room of a tiny home I’ve purchased. It’s wall, ceiling ect are all pine with the same golden colour as your oak cabinet. Quite frankly, after 6 months of living in it , I’m sick of it. I want it to be white. What would you suggest to maintain all the natural pine knots ect
to continue to show through. Do I need to apply a remover for the surface as it appears to have a coating of some kind or can I just sand? I’ve purchased a white stain, Benjamin Moore semi-solid. I cringe at the thought of how much work this will be but know it will be so worth it. I look forward to hearing your recommendations.
Thanks from us newbies for your excellent teaching style.
❤️ from 🇨🇦.
To end up with the finish you described, I am sorry but you would have to start with bare wood. Try just sanding to see if the existing finish comes off easily but you may have to strip and then sand. You are right, its a lot of work but well worth it. Good luck. Wes
