First!
From the one and only!

It is so beautiful. You make it look too easy. I’m not crazy about the pulls. However, I have no suggestions. Thy just remind me of some old wooden filing cabinet in a dingy factory office. The piece is too beautiful for that. Thank you for sharing.

The nightstand looks great! I'll say it for the hundredth time... You have proven that you do not need expensive boutique brand paints to get a high quality finish on furniture.
Thanks!! You got that right! Some of those prices are just outrageous...
Just check with them, for a 2k.thing they will ask at least 40-50k, extracting charges of TH-cam, model even their office AC bills
I never thought of lacquer over a dark paint color. Thanks for that. The table looks better with the update.
Thanks!
You got a very nice finish on there. Black glossy handles do show up on the black but SATIN finished wood. I probably would have used some brushed silver/stainless steel handles of the same shape just for increased pop, but the black on black is a more masculine look. Nice job all around.
It looked like a grayish black at the end I like it :) I think I’ll become a DIY DIVA instead of always paying somebody else to do it! Thanks for the tip
This was very timely! I have two bedside tables which I had previously painted black, but am planning to re-paint as the paint has chipped. This time I will sand between coats.
Yes, sanding will help the paint adhere better to each surface, reducing the chance of it chipping off. Plus it makes a pro smooth finish. To prevent chipping in the paint apply multiple thin layers of a topcoat finish, 3-4 or more for ultimate durability. I use lacquer but it's pretty toxic so be careful of that. There are other choices to use such as various polys, they are popular. Spray on topcoats in spray cans are easy because you don't have to worry about getting it into each crack with a brush or rag. But you need to make sure you apply many coats. Good luck!
Yes all your tips will help me do a better job,thank you.
Great workmanship, super sharing, thank you very much, I will get inspired by you and paint my table black, wish me luck.
Good luck! You can see my newer black painting video too, so you have options
@@FurnitureFlippa Thank you!
I loved it. You did a fantastic job.
Thanks for the kind words, Dennis!
Good idea and great job, it turned that old piece of furniture to a contemporary nice looking one.
I have plenty of furniture I want to do this too.. love the end results
The nightstand looks great! I might have gone with a contrasting handle in chrome, maybe, but the black handles look really good.
Wow!! Nice work!! Admire the outcome also how thorough you are doing the job!!!
Thank you Joanne :)
wow! great transformation.. looks really classy.
Thank you!! glad you liked it
Mineral spirits coats, it does not clean your surfaces. You need to use even dawn dish soap at minimum with a quick clean water damp cloth rinse. …Every step matters. But cleaning most of all. Though better cleaning products would be better. If you use TSP then mineral spirits will neutralize the cleaner, though I do TSP, clean water wipe down, then mineral spirits.
The term, “Well begun is half done!” Comes to mind. Looks great at the end though. Well done.
Awesome job it looks fantastic thank you for sharing within this next month I'll be doing are two nightstands they look exactly the same as that one so glad that you showed us how to do it great day God bless
good luck!!
Love the black & the hardware is awesome, used currently & years ago in kitchens. Great look, black on black.
Glad you like it Elizabeth!!
@@FurnitureFlippa what were you using on the towel in between the paintcoats.. Would you plz tell me the product name?

Thank you!
Very good job
Hoping to paint my white bookshelf black once it gets delivered
Awesome job!
thank you!! and thanks for watching!
Your doing a good job pal. Keep going
Thanks, will do!
Nice video. Two clues to your location. The "odour" warning on the paint and your pronunciation of "out." I've loved my trips to Canada.
That was very helpful!
Glad it was :) Thanks for watching!
Thank you I was about to sand completely but now I know I don’t have to
no prob!!
Wow
Love it!
Thanks Arrie!
Thank you I'm going to do this tomorrow
Good luck! I also have a new How to Paint Furniture Black video if you wanted to see that process too. Thanks for watching!
excellent video thanks
Thanks bro this video help me alot
Looks great!
Thank you !!
Im a new Subscriber, although Ive watched more than one of your videos.
Im going to be painting similar bedside tables black.
Tfs 🤜🤛
thanks for subscribing! And good luck on your project. I have a few projects coming up, I have some end tables I think I am going to paint white!
Nice!
Smoooove✊🏽
Nice job. TFS
Thanks!!
I have watched a few videos and I love the care you take in refinishing the projects! Impressive. How much would that flip for?
Thank you! I sold this piece for $135
Nice. Gonna try it.
Thanks! Good luck!!
It looks expensive now. Those drawer pulls really add tons of extra style to the black.
I know hey!? I think adding pulls onto your pieces really adds value for selling. The ROI is there, they only cost about 5 dollars each (depending of course) and you can typically get a lot more back.
@@FurnitureFlippa True!
@@Southamericangirl42 btw thanks for watching!!
Great video man
Thanks my friend
How are there no brush strokes showing? Looks great.
Love black , maybe a different color CD knob to stand out a bit. Very nice.
Thanks! I was thinking gold initially, but I tried it and I just didn't like it for some reason. Then I ended up going all black!
Good jobbbbb 🤩
Thank you!!

I’m restoring an old antique trunk. The piece is so beat up it’s almost not worth restoring but it’s got sentimental value. My plan is to use 60 grit light sand. Clean. 150 grit light sand. Clean. 220 grit light sand. Clean. Primer. 220 grit sand clean. Primer. 220 grit sand and clean. Bottom layer black not sure which want glossy clean smooth mirror Finish. So 1st paint layer. Sand with 600 clean. 2nd layer of paint. Light sand something between 600 thousand. Light sand clean. 3rd layer black paint. 1000 grit sand clean. Poly coat for finsish sand 1200 clean. Poly coat 1200 sand clean. Poly coat done. I’ll have a white stencil to cover trunk In white that will go on after black base and finish is complete. I’ll probably follow similar steps with white stencil part. It doesn’t need primer again right? Also once I get to plug steps ills wet sand in between layers. White stencil art will be less of a high gloss finish as I want the look at more flat where the Louis Vuitton monogram will be painted on. It’s just going over the black paint. Or do I leave the poly coats off till the pattern is placed on the do the finishing coats once the stencil has been added? It’s my first project so if you could help me with my plan that would be great
That looks so good !! I wanted to paint mine so you know about how much everything was all together?
Awesome. Nothing IKEA makes would last 50 years let alone survive being moved from one room to another
true that! thanks steve
@@FurnitureFlippa I bought their "expensive" 8 drawer solid pine drawers and when I assembled it I discovered the interior partition and drawer rail supports were just a couple of narrow pieces and not like the solid side panels and there was not a solid backing either. I would have returned it but I need to furnish the room and returns can take over an hour (is this deliberate to put off returns???). Anyway I wish I had listened to my parents and kept the old solid wood or wood veneered furniture that we threw out and could have modernised after watching your video 😭😭😭
@@AnnaBananana93 same I have a desk that's 15 years old at least and moved 3 times from ikea and it's huge, you have to buy the right things from ikea people lmao
Do I have to use a brush to paint can I use a small roller?
Either will do the job, if the paint is good quality it should level itself out. Use a roller when you have large flat surfaces and a brush for small areas.
How many days did this take? And how long did you let each coat dry? Great video!!
don’t you run desertDIY?
It takes about a day and let each coat dry for about 2 hours
Definitely have been thinking about retouching a coffee table and a night stand in black. Any suggestion on how much paint/lacquer?
Also the night stand has a wood on wood slides on both sides of each of the two drawers. One side of one of the drawers has worn sot hat it sits a bit uneven. Is there a cheap, easy, and quick way to fix that? Like the wood that the drawer slots over is fine, but where the weight of the drawer is held it has worn.
A quart of paint would be plenty for a coffee table! For a topcoat, you can use lacquer, but you can also use furniture wax or water-based polyurethane. If using a spray can I would say 2 minimum and for wax, you'd have to buy the typical size can which lasts for a very long time.
The drawers you can add wax to see if they slide better or you may need to replace the slider, which starts to get into some woodworking more than painting/refinishing haha good luck!
Should I paint the back of my dresser?
Can you please tell me the first kind of sand paper to use?
Good tip about placing something under your item just incase the paint peels back.
WELL DONE 🤗😉😷🌏🌎🌍BE SAFE BE WELL
Thanks Vanessa!
Did you need to sand and put primer?
Looks very professional 👌!!@
Thanks Angela!!
Do you sand between coats of the lacquer?
Great video . I have a question I have a desk I plan on painting soon n if I follow the steps you provided in this video will I have to worry about the paint smearing eventually? The reason I ask is because I had a desk I painted n the past n had no knowledge of the steps u provided n i just painted on top of the wood as is n after a week I notice whenever I rest my arms on the desk the paint smeared bad in those certain spots. Will this process
U shared help avoid that situation?
Follow the same steps but use a polyurethane or polycrylic clear coat on the top for more durability.
@@FurnitureFlippa thanks man really appreciate the advice
When we sprayed the lacquer, it did not dry fast and seemed white. I did this spray outside so do you think that there was dirt from outside? Windy? I wiped it down and took it in to dry but I think it dried quickly and smeary. I waited 30 minutes between sprays. Please let me know.
is this furniture or indoor outdoor paint. Do I need primer my dresser is new, but i just don't like the color anymore! It is a white oak grey wash.
If u would put danish oil indude the drawers, would it leave an oily residue,
not sure! I haven't used danish oil before!
So you sand or do anything in between the final 3 finishing coats of lacquer?
I don't, lacquer will bond to the previous coat. After applying 3-4 coats, I sometimes buff it with finishing paste wax and 0000 steel wool, then a final buff with a rag. But make sure the lacquer is dry, I wait a couple days to do so. This makes it super smooth!
Can I ask how many cans of laquar it took for one of these . I’m planning on doing two bedside tables . Two side tables, and a dining room table.
Did you sand inside those groves on the side verticals.
Yes! I try to scuff each and every corner, sometimes it can be difficult. But in and around those detailed edges I would grab a piece of sandpaper and push in with my finger to give it a little scuff. Will it make a huge difference? maybe, maybe not but it's definitely less likely to peel or chip off in there now!
Why didn't you use the sprayer instead?
Can you do how to stain furniture?
I have a lot of videos where I stain furniture, check out my last few uploads! But this is something I can look at dedicating a video for in the future
whats were you doing before the painting? Removing the brown paint?
