You’ve done it again! I can’t get enough of how you repair damages and imperfections, even small ones, with all your different methods. I was hoping if you’d make a video, when you have time, walking us through your spray equipment. For some reason I’ve always used wiping stains, conditioners and polyurethane, which obviously limits so much that can be done to the piece, not to mention how time consuming it can be. I’ve located a Mohawk dealer close to me, but I can’t get a straight forward answer on what spray equipment to use, and the internet is full of opposing views on what’s better to use, especially for someone like myself whose very accustomed to wiping and. It spraying. Thank you for the videos and all the information. Take care and God bless.
There are a lot of spray videos on TH-cam. I watched most of them as I was learning. What enabled me to assimilate the information was practice. Lots of it. I used to buy and sell a lot of lower end furniture and that's where I cut my teeth on spraying. I use a DeVilbis Finish Line gun (not sure it's the best, but it's the one I have and it works great for me). I have a large Quincy Air Compressor, but I started with an old Craftsman Oil-less compressor with a 20 gallon tank. There's really no secrets that I see, just a base of knowledge and practice should get you where you want to go. Thanks for watching!
You are a true craftsman Larry, a perfect result. I am very impressed with your skill. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. Cheers and very best wishes from Tasmania, Australia 🇦🇺. Brenden.
💗❤💗 So Beautiful! You are a true artist. I love watching your videos, I learn so much. Thank you for sharing. Just wish I could send you a picture of a dresser I will be attempting to restore. I was told 1920s build from Scotland.
Little tip, would have been better not staining the wood before sealing, the stain makes the imperfections stand out more like the dent you steamed out, seal get your colour using colour from a spray gun to match it all out.
If I don't have to color match and I have a long way to go, I'll use a wiping stain as I did here. If I have an issue with using that technique, then I spray a toner or use glaze over sealed wood. Thanks for watching.
@@LostMountainRestoration was this the original colour of the set, certainly seems to me that way... if i figured it out right, your client lightened the whole set in the 70ies or so? Such a shame, it was meant to be dark, imho... Very nice restoration, keep 'em coming :)
She did. She had spent her life as a nurse, so I thought it was time someone took care of her as she began her retirement. I'm glad I had a chance to do this one. Thanks for watching.
Not sure what you mean. Laminate is normally a kind of plastic, so you would have to go over it with some kind of opaque color that would adhere to it before top coating. Wooden furniture is easier to darken as the stain or dye is designed to either penetrate or adhere in some fashion to the wood. Thanks for watching!
I have a question! I have a mcm walnut night stand. It is not laminate I've checked inside and the back. It's in original condition. I can't seem to strip the coating off 😕. Have you had this problem and how did you get the finish off? Thanks
I had the devil's time trying to get this video to render and upload. I had to re-name it 2a and it finally went after over 24 hours. I'll change the title now - thanks, I hadn't noticed.

Couldn't be more impressed with your workmanship. Also like your sense of humor about what you can't control.
I enjoy watching and learning from your videos. Very informative. Thanks for sharing what you do.

Unbelieveable! Probably looks better than when first made! Greetings from Illinois!

Wow, what a great job you did with these pieces. The colour match is perfect and they’re a beautiful set.
Wow Larry great job as always!! I love how you and Thom Johnson strive for perfection...and if it's not...you'll sand it and redo it.
Very well done!!! Everything looks beautiful!!

Looking great sir.
Bet the customer loved what she got back.
She did. She had spent her life as a nurse, so I thought it was time someone took care of her as she began her retirement. I'm glad I had a chance to do this one. Thanks for watching.
You're amazing!!
Perfection work, as always!!
Larry, it looks great! Keep it up! Thanks for the tip of using Southern Paints...those guys are great.
Another lovely project. Great job.

Hey Larry,looks Great.Can i ask you what kind of gun you use and what psi you spray at? 90?
DeVilbus Finish Line at 30 PSI, which is what the gun requires. Thanks!
Can you change one laminate furniture color from walnut to espresso?
Not sure what you mean. Laminate is normally a kind of plastic, so you would have to go over it with some kind of opaque color that would adhere to it before top coating. Wooden furniture is easier to darken as the stain or dye is designed to either penetrate or adhere in some fashion to the wood. Thanks for watching!

Figured it out! Leave stripper on for a long time 😕
Are you Bedos Leatherworks brother?
No. He's much better looking than I am!
@@LostMountainRestoration beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
I hate the old man noises! I get to listen to them all day long!
Excellent Job! A very wise man told me.."The Cream Always rises to the Top...You are an example of that.
Thank you kindly!
Why 2a? Is there a 2b?
I had the devil's time trying to get this video to render and upload. I had to re-name it 2a and it finally went after over 24 hours. I'll change the title now - thanks, I hadn't noticed.
Phew 😅. I thought 2b was that the customer wanted something different. BTW, it came out beautiful.
