My project is to strip a wood cathedral ceiling. I don't want the wood grain to be "opened", and was looking for the gentlest blasting media to use. I'd never considered soda blasting, and had no idea where to get the equipment. The information and sources that you've generously shared has moved my project forward several steps toward completion.
My favourite is definitely the green and wood one. Very classy! I love the way you both share a common interest and spend time working together on a hobby/money making venture you enjoy. If only I could get my husband to feel the same as me about furniture flipping!
For that piece of furniture how much soda blast did you use, I have a 18 CFM compressor 3 cylinder that I built years ago,runs at 150 pounds non stop, I never used soda blast before I have used Silca sand it’s real fine, I blast at 1-1 1/2 feet away, never hurt the wood, I made a blast tank out of a scuba tank, all aluminum tank works great, I just want to know how the soda blast works.
It was nice to see you using the soda blasting. I've been wanting to do and just didn't have the nerve. You made it so simple, even I could not mess it up. Thank You.
The combination of Dk wood and green is beautiful. I really like that the soda blasting can be done without using chemical. A combination of this and traditional sanding looks like the future. Thanks for showing new products and techniques.
My first time watching and I was impressed. I watched because of the soda blaster. I have one CP 15 lb. Last time I tried it was over a year ago and it tore off the wood. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. You made it look easy. Beautiful work.
From SC. Great job on both...so fresh and clean. Canmot pick a favorite. Kudos to Cindy. You did a great job on that hardware. Great team effort. Keep them coming. Thanks
Black and copper is my favorite but the green and wood is beautiful too! Thank you so much for showing the little ducklings! It is so nice to see that others take time to notice we share this planet with nature and to appreciate it! Love the teamwork... you two are cute together!🙂❤🙏💛
That is gorgeous! I'm glad you kept the original hardware. They suit the piece beautifully 🙂 It's difficult to choose between this and the one you did last week. They are both so lovely.
Watching that soda blaster was super satisfying!! Is there any possibility of doing damage with it? Like if i had the pressure too high or something would it blow a hole through the wood??
It would be unlikely to happen with soda because it's fairly soft, but if you crank up the pressure and use a course grain soda, anything is possible! We were running about 45-50 psi at the blaster. Thanks!
They are both real nice. I really like the more traditional look, because it has a modern twist!! Kind of the best of both worlds, Great job once again!
It's really pretty. I like it. I just love how you guys clean and wax the whole piece. It shows care. I like the more traditional green and wood. I think I like traditional in just about everything in my life.
As always...I love this! LOL And, I really cannot choose because you took two EXACT pieces, same time frame and all... and made them fit perfectly into someone's else's dream of what's perfect for them...one very modern and bronzed, the other painted and stately charm. Lovely executing on them both. Thank you!
As always, everything you do is beautiful and exudes love. I must say, though, that I definitely prefer the green one. It looks SO elegant and stylish. I loved the copper one but this one blew my mind!!
Hi Ya Guys . Oh WOW! WOWZA! Just ❤️❤️ the green and dark wood 👍it’s ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS 👏👏 I ❤️the Copper one Also , but the Olive green one just Blew me away 👍 Have an Awesome day guys 😊
I recently bought a soda blaster and watched to see how well it worked for you. I was surprised to see your setup is exactly as mine. I was hopeful that my Wagner tent would be adequate to capture some of the media. Next time you should soda blast the hardware, it should clean up real brass pretty quickly.
They Both came out gorgeous ...But I'm leaning towards the green and wood... Hampton olive just so happens to be a top favorite paint and color 😂🥰👍❣️❣️
I love this dresser. Those colors together, oh be still my heart! I love that you are so willing to try a new to you technique on camera. So many are afraid of messing up, but seeing and learning from mistakes or gaining the knowledge from someone else is what I really love. I do have so many questions about the soda blasting. Did it save a lot of time? I know that the tent was a mess, but did it make a mess outside of the tent? If it did, was it horrible? I could see the awesome result it had on the dove tails. I spend so much time trying to get old paint out of dove tails! Thank you so much for all of your videos!!
The soda blasting does save time, and the tent really did a good job at containing everything. There was very little outside of the tent. It works great on the small detailed areas! Thanks Trish!
@@FurnitureWarriors thank you for the information. I think I should invest in a soda blaster. I have a huge air compressor, so I might as well give it a go. Another question. Is the 40 lb tank easy to handle? I have severe back and knee problems, so I was wondering the ease of use of the tank itself.
I’m doing a dresser now with the exact antique hardware but I have 3 broken wish I could find a replacement. LOVE the green dresser flip not so much the other.
U 2 are such a team❤ U remind me ,of my late husband and I.Ur work is beautiful.Strength to u both.When a couple works as a team ,they can even build " Rome in a day".
The rich wood tone and grain is beautiful! The soda blasting looked interesting. Effective, I'm sure, but I don't think I would want the mess to clean up. That's just me. However, you can't deny the outcome of the piece. It should be easy to sell. Great job! 🙂👍
I like them both, but I think this is my favorite. Can I ask how the hardware was cleaned? I have a Drexel hutch with this same hardware and I’d love them to be as beautiful as your hardware. Fantastic job!
Wow, both pieces came out very well! My preference is the stunning comtemporary look created with last week's piece, but could go either way depending on placement with other furnishings. Great job! Soda blasting looks great, but needs more space than I have in my one-bedroom apartment.
I prefer the copper and black, but I have been collecting mid-century copper pieces for a long time, copper is my fave metal!! But I love the green and wood as well, both are beautiful.
I find when sanding anything like this my belt sander rips too many belts the orbital sander gums up constantly and the old block and sandpaper just takes way too long. I'm really keen to try a media blaster and see if this can help speed up my works. have some waxed old wooden units we are working on and it takes hours to do a single panel properly. Thanks for the video.
We already had the compressor for painting, so cost of equipment wasn't too bad. Reclaiming the media is almost a must to make it cost efficient. Thanks J!
It did seem to raise the grain a bit, but we were also using medium grit soda. We're going to try the finer grit soda and see how that works in comparison. Thanks Sally!
What grit soda are u using ?? Are there multiple grits ? 1st adventure w soda blaster next week. I love the green but for me would have done all drawers in stain. Which I've done on numerous pieces, it's just my preferred look. Can't wait to try the soda blaster, could be a game changer on time allocation with stripping finishes. Great job ! Kind Regards, Patricia Red Hare Furniture Restoration Boutique
Hi guys! They are both lovely but purely personal preference, I would have to go with the green and wood. I think any green with a wood tone looks brilliant. You did a great job on both of them!
Woooow I have this same dresser...the drawers are a bit hard to pull in and out...any suggestions? Just an FYI get a sprayer for your spray can...they are awesome...the green with wood is my favorite 😍
I tried this but I think I need a larger nozzle. Are you using the original nozzle that came with the Harbor Freight unit? Your dresser came out beautiful. Thank you for this video.
We are using the original nozzle. It does take some adjusting of the media flow and we ended up running 45-50 psi at the soda blaster regulator. Hope that helps. Thanks Susan!
I'm just wondering what if you did that work in a tent and had a decent waccum connected to it would that help with dust and reclaiming of the material at the end...
I am thinking about purchasing this fabulous tool is it cheap in comparison to all the expensive sandpaper as well as how long approx did it take to sand the dresser?

Green and wood, excellent work. I'm so glad I bumped into this video.
You have out done your selfs again. Absolutely stunning! They are both stunning! My taste is the green and wood
Thanks so much 😊
My favourite is definitely the green and wood one. Very classy! I love the way you both share a common interest and spend time working together on a hobby/money making venture you enjoy. If only I could get my husband to feel the same as me about furniture flipping!
Thanks Stephanie!!
That is probably one of the most beautiful pieces you’ve done! Green and wood❤️ I love the detailed work you do as well.
Thank you so much Ruthie!💗
So glad you kept the hardware. I love that particular style of handle. Because of that, I like this one a lot more!.
Glad you like it! Thanks!!

Beautiful!! I prefer the green and wood look! Watching your work is very satisfying! Thank you!
Thank you so much 😀
Good work. Dressers are always my favorite to work on. I like what you have done to both dressers.
It was nice to see you using the soda blasting. I've been wanting to do and just didn't have the nerve. You made it so simple, even I could not mess it up. Thank You.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks!
Great job… the work that goes into these then my kids will scratch it the very first day lol 😂 ❤
The soda cleanup was surprising, great to know a paint tent works well!
The combination of Dk wood and green is beautiful. I really like that the soda blasting can be done without using chemical. A combination of this and traditional sanding looks like the future. Thanks for showing new products and techniques.

I liked more the green and wood. Nice couple job. I will continue watching your videos to learn more. Keep well.

Thank you so much Kathy!
Wow they're both beautiful. I like the green and wood piece.
Thanks so much!
Stunning as always!
I just love the green and wood!!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
They both are extremely beautiful. As to which one I'd prefer it would depend on my decor. Would love either one.
Job well done 👏
Thanks so much! 😊
The black and copper is best…both are beautiful!
Thanks Linda!
Most informative video I’ve watched.
The green is my fave. Thanks for the great vid it was relaxing and fun to watch..
You two are such hard workers and make a great team. Refinishing something good is not easy. Love your work.
Thanks 👍
Hi. Awesome job and result. Appreciate the attention to detail, and to be honest, both units look great. Well done.
Thank you very much!
Both are GREAT! I love the green & wood...
Thanks Aleecia!

Thanks Carmen!!!
Both are stunning. I can’t pick one. Lol. Love them both. Bravo guys❤️
Thanks so much! 😊
You can do anything when you have a supporting wife, may God bless both of you!!!
As always, everything you do is beautiful and exudes love. I must say, though, that I definitely prefer the green one. It looks SO elegant and stylish. I loved the copper one but this one blew my mind!!
Thanks Andy! Always appreciate your input!💗
Nice job. The older furniture is so appealing. I preferred the wood and green. I always lean towards most green colors.
Both are lovely! I would choose the green one.
Thanks Sandra!!
I loved both dressers, but probably prefer the traditional, but I do so love watching you and Cindy work together!
Yay! Thank you!
I was mesmerized. I liked the green and brown DIY.
Hi Ya Guys . Oh WOW! WOWZA!
Just ❤️❤️ the green and dark wood 👍it’s ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS 👏👏

Have an Awesome day guys 😊

Thank you! Cheers!
Traditional! Beautiful!
Thank you Cindy!
I like the green and wood color with the handles from the other. Great job👍
Thanks 👍
Green and wood for me. I am always drawn to wood first. Great job x
We love to save the wood when we can! Thanks Linda!
I have the exact set, and I am in the process of stripping it. I like the results of the machine.
Gorgeous work! Great job.
They are beautiful! Both of them!
Thank you!
They are both beautiful! My style is more towards the olive one. Thanks so much for sharing
Thank you! 😊
Both are beautiful!
I like them both. Nice work you two.
Thank you!

I like both! But The green and wood matches my vibe better. 😊
Cool! Thanks Diane!
U 2 are such a team❤ U remind me ,of my late husband and I.Ur work is beautiful.Strength to u both.When a couple works as a team ,they can even build " Rome in a day".
So pretty! This colour combination is fast becoming a favourite of mine so this one wins me.
Thanks Tarnya!
So pretty! I pick the green one😍
Great job! Green and wood would be my choice! But both beautiful!
Thanks Tanya!
I myself like the traditional one better and it came out beautiful very good work
Thank you! 😊

I Love both of them for diff places in home, but I’m partial to green & wood!!! I Love that green-fav color!!!!💚🌺💚
Thanks Cathy!
I like the green and wood,,beautiful
Thank you Dodd!
There are features I like about each of them. I don't know which one to pick right now! Lol like the copper, but like the green and wood as well......
Thanks Vickie!!
Thanks for sharing. Your project looks great. I want one of these blasters, if i can only figure out how to hook everything up.
Absolutely beautiful. 🥰
Thank you! 😊

Liked the green one so much we bought it!
Thanks Troy!!! Hope you enjoy it for years to come!!!
Love them both. Great job
Love the tan and stained one!
So gorgeous!! I love all your work 👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks much!!!
Thanks for this. It helps with my decisio to biy a soda blaster. can I ask why you changed to.the traditional sander for the large flat parts? thanks
They are both beautiful, but since you asked, my husband likes the bold and I like the beautiful green and wood
Oh no!😮 Thanks Shelley!!!😀
Beautiful work on both pieces! As far as which one I would chose, I want both.
Good choice!😄Thanks Kay!
I prefer the copper and black, but I have been collecting mid-century copper pieces for a long time, copper is my fave metal!! But I love the green and wood as well, both are beautiful.

YUO ARE FANTASTIC
Both gorgeous! I'd pick the copper/ black for my home. But love the wood in the other. Incredible work!
Thanks Shelly!
I've been thinking about getting set up to do this kind of blasting - not sure if I can justify the cost.
We already had the compressor for painting, so cost of equipment wasn't too bad. Reclaiming the media is almost a must to make it cost efficient. Thanks J!
@@FurnitureWarriors Are us using the "special" blasting baking soda? Some folks seem to be using regular household baking soda.
@@strongjohn10956 Yes, it's the medium grit soda - blasting media.
I love the traditional color and dark wood. Does the soda blaster raise the wood grain? It seems the grain was more prominent afterwards.
It did seem to raise the grain a bit, but we were also using medium grit soda. We're going to try the finer grit soda and see how that works in comparison. Thanks Sally!

Love both pieces. Great darn jobs.
