Sometimes vintage furniture isn’t as easy to refinish as you think it will be. That was the case with this MCM piece. It had more damaged than I realized. I loved the clean lines and the unique design though.
After numerous repairs, I was able to start the priming and painting. That part was fairly easy. The top had some weird areas that didn’t want to take the gel stain. I let the gel stain dry for 72 hours and then used a water based stain to layer over those areas. Then I toned the whole top with dye stain mixed with my topcoat. That still didn’t even it out, so I used a glaze and that worked. Whew. Sometimes you just have to layer products to get the look you want.
After a few more tweaks with the drawers, it was done.
The new hardware is the star of the show with this one. I love it! What do you think?
