In this video I restore and refinish an old Mahogany Chest of Drawers that's seen better days. Its been dented, scratched and is wobbly and it took a lot of work to bring it back to life.

I can see why this client came back to you to restore this piece...absolutely stunning restoration and treatment of the wood!!

thank you 😀

I turned out beautifully! Mahogany is such a beautiful wood. The minimal paint used didn't take away from that. It looks warm and masculine.

Really great work! Now that I've discovered your channel and your work I look forward to watching you at work again. Just a note for future videos: Leave the subtitles up a few seconds longer. Thanks so much for sharing!

@GM_Design 11 месяцев назад

Thank you very much! I’ll endeavour to improve the subtitles in my next video 👍

Well that was lovely! I have an old chest of drawers, almost identical in construction, but made of pine. It’s sadly in need of a makeover, so now I know exactly what to do. Perhaps! I wish I had all those clamps!

Ok, so, I haven’t even finished watching the whole video….a) I like that you aren’t yakking but are still being clear about your actions, via subtitles (yes, leave em up longer!) b) I’m sincerely jealous of your clamp stash…. c) You have a wonderful sense of humor 😂. Now, back to watching the show!

@mirandamom1346 10 месяцев назад

I’ve realized that I’m a freak- I love sanding 😂! So glad you didn’t fill the mahogany grain.

@Cariadog1 11 месяцев назад

Beautiful! I happen to like the mix of paint and restored wood finish. It's a lovely modern contrast. The wood is still under the paint. No need to get upset by it 😂. I love the hardware too.

@GM_Design 11 месяцев назад

Awesome, thank you!

@leewood729 11 месяцев назад

As a general rule, I'm not a big fan of painted wood furniture - but sometimes there's not much choice and this is not only a good compromise but a very classy one as well. Good "cover-up" choice with the hardware, too. Lubbly jubbly indeed. Kia ora from Aotearoa...

For the record the wood around the bottom of a dresser is called the skirt or skirting. Good job on the dresser. It looks lovely.

@ldianehigley3287 11 месяцев назад

The customer is always right! It looks beautiful, painting covers a multitude of gouges, etc. I have refinished furniture for over 50 years, so I know the drill!

@GM_Design 11 месяцев назад

I totally agree!

@ccbphoto 11 месяцев назад

Just subscribed and liked.... I'm curious to know why you didn't paint the back of the chest...

@GM_Design 11 месяцев назад

Glad you liked it 😀 I was working to a budget for this customer so the back wasn’t a priority.

@dennismartin2882 11 месяцев назад

Can you list the products used on by the way a great restoration well done you

@GM_Design 11 месяцев назад

I will endeavour to do this in future, was there any specific product you wanted to know? Glad you liked the video, thanks 😀

@dennismartin2882 11 месяцев назад

@GM_Design the varnish remover please.

@GM_Design 11 месяцев назад

that’s Paramose water based R10B1 Paint & Varnish remover, I purchase it from Morrells here in the uk, just looked on their website but couldn’t find it to send you a link but if you contact them I’m sure they’ll be able to help. 👍

@amandalouise1604 11 месяцев назад

@CrazyCatLady1968 11 месяцев назад

Gorgeous! I have a dresser that was my Poppy's & I think I'm going to try and refinish/make it over. I think he would be happy that I turned it into something I love while keeping it true to him as well 🥰 You've convinced me paint isn't always a bad thing! 💚💚💚💚💚 (green hearts for Poppy who was a Kawasaki motorcycle dealer)

@GM_Design 11 месяцев назад

Go for it!

@amybucher5439 11 месяцев назад

I think I have heard people refer to the split piece as an, “apron” or “base”.

@GM_Design 11 месяцев назад

that’s great, thanks 😀

@johnpinner1 11 месяцев назад

Stoning

@TheAfezio 11 месяцев назад

I think it looks great! Do the people who can't believe you would paint it actually do this or are they just voicing an opinion? Because that wad a lot damage to the sides!

@GM_Design 11 месяцев назад

thanks glad you liked it 😀 You can repair and refinish back to original but it’ll never be perfect, that’s sometimes the right route to take, but it will show its age & patina, which can be nice. I’m happy doing both ways, I like people to comment on how they would have done it, whether they agree with my choices or not 👍
