  • Copy & paste this link ✨ urlgeni.us/amzn/waterdamage ✨ for the list of products I used to fix these water damage bubbles!
    Here’s how I did it:
    • + used exacto knife to cut along the grain over the bubble. this will allow any trapped air or moisture to get out during the next step
    • + placed damp cloth or towel over the surface & lightly iron
    • + pulled off the damp cloth to check out my progress! you may need to repeat steps 1-3 if you still see bubbles
    • + sanded down with 120 grit
    • + stained with Mohawk medium brown wipe on stain
    • + used veneer kit to paint in any damage to veneer
    + I didn’t seal yet, once I’m finished with the matching dresser i’ll do both at once with mohawk lacquer!

    Shoutout to the straightforward tutorials. Amazing since I was trying to figure this out while at a big box store.

    A lot of years ago, my husband lit a three wick candle, a brand new candle. It was on a glass candle holder, but he didn’t blow it out before we went to bed, the candle was a burgundy color. I don’t remember the scent but the next morning, I woke up with candle wax all over my brand, new cherry wood color, Brothill kitchen table. I was almost devastated but I got a white kitchen towel and used my iron to pull the color and the wax out of my table. Thankfully it worked without leaving any marks! Whew he was lucky to live after that lol ❤

      And lucky that it was burgundy on cherry.
      Never happened to me and overflow of wax, it usually disappears.

    Is there a way to do it without sanding?

  • @Turopolec
    @Turopolec Před 9 měsíci +3

    This is by far most promising recipe for fixing the problem I found on CZcams. However, I got a question... most of the videos use additional glue that they insert after cutting the bubble open. One of them even states that this is necessary for newer furniture that uses non-reactivating glue for gluing the veneer... apparently older furniture uses some type of glue that can reactivate on heat. Any comments on that? It would be extremely helpful if I don't have to insert the glue... perhaps it would be easier to just buy new veneer and glue it on instead. Thanks!

    • @thefurnituredoctor
      @thefurnituredoctor  Před 9 měsíci +3

      I’ve never tried it on newer furniture, just older! Older seems to always reactivate! I’ve seen people use a needle and syringe to put glue into the cracks of veneer but I’ve never found that necessary

    Was the top varnished or waxed etc.? I have the same problem in front, but my table is varnished and I'm wondering if I should remove the varnish first? Thank you in advance for your reply!

    Do you think I could do this with a severely stained & water damaged teak veneer? It's a mid century danish desk :(
    Also were ur bubble hard or soft? Mine are soft so idk if this would work or if it's a problem with the particle board
