    Loved the video.
    When my wife and I watch videos by other furniture restorers, we cant help but notice that a lot of restorers appear to sand their pieces cosmetically; purely for the sake of the video.
    You go to great lengths to do things right, we love it. Thank you.

    I have a project I have been researching how to do properly and turned to youtube, out of all the furniture restoration channels your videos are top notch. You explain each step, why you’re doing/not doing something, give different products and your experience with each… not to mention the great sound quality and efficiency of information over doing unnecessary shots. I’ve started watching many videos of yours since just to keep learning! Thank you for your hard work you’re great at it!

    Ha excellent. My wife and I were at Menards last night looking at all the paint and gadgets and this subject came up. Theresa my wife, wanted to know what it means to white wash and I couldn't tell her. My guess is watered down paint but I will watch and see.....
    I did also see that pickeld stain and didn't remeber that being around years ago when I messed with a wood shop. Loooking forward to the video and seeing the difference.
