Hi! Thanks for watching my restoration videos! I upload frequently - so be sure to subscribe. If you want to support this channel use the Thanks button 🙏🏻 I also have a Membership option with exclusive content every month and other goodies! Take care!
Came out beautiful! I'm in the United States but if you were closer to me, I sure would have loved to buy many of your refinished pieces! Really nice work! 💜❤
I go straight to the Edding markers for small spot repairs these days. You can mess around with wood paste and stain forever, but the more you try and perfect it, the worse it gets. Hard wax for floorboard repairs, melted in, and then scraped off with a small spatchelor, is a lot quicker. Then you can use the markers to correct and blend out any color mis-matches.
Was it Teak Oil that you applied for the finish? I have a 1960's Danish Modern dining table and four chairs designed by Johannes Andersen for Christian Linneberg. I was surprised how easily you were able to sand off the original finish. Thanks for the tips. Especially the ironing to raise the wood.

Hi! Such a great designer! It was danish teak oil. The table had a really old finish so it was easy to remove. Good luck with your project and thanks for watching 🙏🏻 I will post a new video this week where I restore a really messed up teak table.
If you decide to undertake refinishing such a piece, be aware the top is veneer, so you're better off using a chemical stripper to remove the finish, as opposed to going straight to sanding. The less sanding you throw at these pieces, the better. It'll be one of the steps for sure, but shouldn't be the first. Just my experience.
Why did you not narrate your process? Your video would have been so much better. There were some advanced techniques like the iron process where you didn't bother to explain what you were doing and why.

Great job! What oil did you use?
This has really helped me gain the confidence to refinish our teak dining table - with great results! Thank you!
Glad to hear! Thanks for watching my video 🙏🏻
The table turned out very nice but, I have to say, I prefer your videos that you narrate
Thanks! One of my older ones. Stay tuned for the upcoming video on sunday 🙏🏻

Brilliant results though! Those ‘Surfboard’ style Danish coffee tables are a fantastic design that never gets old.
Thank you! Great advice. Look into it!!
If i do the sam3 process with teak oil, can i then go over it with a polyurethane varnish? For protection? Thanks
That would work but be sure to let the oil sink in properly and wait a day or two!
Thank you! Doing up a very similar mid cent table :)
It was so enjoyable to be able to watch with the volume turned completely off.

Is this massive teak?
Hi! 95% of all mid-century furniture has veneer!!
What kind of oil did you use?
Hi Randy! I used danish oil. Good luck 🙂☀️

Hi! This is one of my earlier videos. Nowadays I add instructions and comments during the process. Thanks for watching!
Oh that explains it. When you moistened the area with the scratch and then ironed it, what made the scratch go away? Just curious...
The heat and moist raises the wood fibers and makes scratches and dents disappear 🙂
do you use water to wet the table down before ironing? :)
Correct 🙂
@@midcenturyflipper Thank you :)
Good luck!
