It’s done. Whew. It’s been so long since I refinished anything it was like I was learning something brand new.
I used this to stain it.
I liked it, but am not sure I would use it again. You have to move fast with the poly in the stain and I got some brush stokes that needed to be sanded down and stained again. But, it could be because I am out of practice. I sanded with this between each coat of stain.
Of course, I had a lot of help.
My pictures of the table didn’t turn out very well because of the light, but you get the idea!
The top is darker which I wanted and the bottom is not as red as this photo shows, more of a dark brown. I like it and the best part is this table was being thrown out and I picked it up for free. I’m amazed at what people throw out. I am a total convert to junking now.
