The restoration of a 1965 dresser that just may be the flakiest piece of furniture I have ever seen. You never know what may lie underneath...
I got this dresser for free on Facebook Marketplace. I was drawn to the simple midcentury modern design, and aside from some small damages, it was in great condition. Because of the brown flaky layer, it was hard to tell what kind of quality lied underneath, but I was pleasantly surprised in the end.
Hope you enjoy the video :)

I am so happy you usually go for the woodgrain. It is painful to watch these furniture "restoration" videos where they strip, sand, then cover beautiful woodgrain with chalk paint. Always the chalk paint. Also! I like no music, I like hearing your tools at work! As always, great job, thoroughly entertaining and informative. (I make miniature furniture and love seeing unique pieces to scale down and replicate, you always show good ones!)

@@toniisaacson6282 I think it is a sin to cover beautiful wood with paint. Save paint for ugly wood or non-wood products.

The previous owner did NOT remove the initial surface compound, so their choice of finish could NOT adhere. Polyurethane will flake this badly, when not applied properly. I think they used a brush application and it was too thick.
@Objective-Observer
@Objective-Observer Год назад
@Mundi Odium Removing the old finish first. Clean the surface, dry it, sand it, blow the dust off, then apply in thin coats. Allowing each coat to dry thoroughly, before adding the next. Like several days, between coats. If you don't allow it to dry, between coats, the old coat won't be properly adheard to the previous coat and they all flake off.
@lonnarheaj
@lonnarheaj Год назад
Agreed. There are late commers to the paint industry that can stick to almost anything, but polyurethane, especially high gloss, can still present problems for some. Usually either removal or an esufficient scuffing with an intermediary coat of a good primer are still required. Polyurethane is durable tough stuff, and sometimes a major pain in the ars. 😄
@cferguson3368
@cferguson3368 Год назад
Agree. It was not shellac, just poorly applied poly. People probably assumed shellac because antique furniture can flake or have crazing when it is damaged. However, it does not look the same as what you have.

I have seen this once before: a family member gave their sofa with wooden flat handles for a restoration and the guy was so proud to tell her that he gets the smoothest and shiniest finishes on wood by applying.... CAR PAINT. A few years later it started flaking exactly like that and when I stripped it it came off like this exaclty. Good work.

I love how you stained it. I may only be in 9th grade but I had to take a tech Ed course in 7th and eighth grade, and the woodworking part was my favorite. I hated the smell of the stain, but my finished wood projects always made me happy.

It’s really great that you have an appreciation for woodworking from your classroom. I hope you will continue to learn. It’s wonderful to see our own work. I took a woodworking class in my early 50’s and convinced my husband to help me build a room on our house and another pantry. It took a year of every Saturday and Monday holidays but it turned out great and passed inspection every time.

The finish you scraped off looks like a polyurethane finish with the stain built into it. Minwax makes and Flecto Varathene used to make this product. I make my own by using X3D stain by Flecto in the Varathene and spraying it. I never go over an old finish and always get the wood down to a clean sanded condition. I usually stain the wood directly and use the above method to beef up the colour when needed. It's how you make maple look like walnut.😁 The species is Ash, "the poor man's Oak"

So satisfying! I remembered restoring a dresser that was made around the Civil War times, taking it apart, sanding it, staining it and even restored the signature on one of the bottom drawers by retracing it. It had red stain stuff on it so when I sanded it the first time my legs were orange (probably cuz I was wearing shorts) Nevertheless I had fun restoring it and is in my living room. Every time I see it I think of how hard I worked on it
