      It is so beautiful. You make it look too easy. I’m not crazy about the pulls. However, I have no suggestions. Thy just remind me of some old wooden filing cabinet in a dingy factory office. The piece is too beautiful for that. Thank you for sharing.

    You got a very nice finish on there. Black glossy handles do show up on the black but SATIN finished wood. I probably would have used some brushed silver/stainless steel handles of the same shape just for increased pop, but the black on black is a more masculine look. Nice job all around.

    This was very timely! I have two bedside tables which I had previously painted black, but am planning to re-paint as the paint has chipped. This time I will sand between coats.

    • @FurnitureFlippa
      @FurnitureFlippa  Před 3 lety +3

      Yes, sanding will help the paint adhere better to each surface, reducing the chance of it chipping off. Plus it makes a pro smooth finish. To prevent chipping in the paint apply multiple thin layers of a topcoat finish, 3-4 or more for ultimate durability. I use lacquer but it's pretty toxic so be careful of that. There are other choices to use such as various polys, they are popular. Spray on topcoats in spray cans are easy because you don't have to worry about getting it into each crack with a brush or rag. But you need to make sure you apply many coats. Good luck!

    Definitely have been thinking about retouching a coffee table and a night stand in black. Any suggestion on how much paint/lacquer?
    Also the night stand has a wood on wood slides on both sides of each of the two drawers. One side of one of the drawers has worn sot hat it sits a bit uneven. Is there a cheap, easy, and quick way to fix that? Like the wood that the drawer slots over is fine, but where the weight of the drawer is held it has worn.

    • @FurnitureFlippa
      @FurnitureFlippa  Před 3 lety

      A quart of paint would be plenty for a coffee table! For a topcoat, you can use lacquer, but you can also use furniture wax or water-based polyurethane. If using a spray can I would say 2 minimum and for wax, you'd have to buy the typical size can which lasts for a very long time.
      The drawers you can add wax to see if they slide better or you may need to replace the slider, which starts to get into some woodworking more than painting/refinishing haha good luck!

    So you sand or do anything in between the final 3 finishing coats of lacquer?

    • @FurnitureFlippa
      @FurnitureFlippa  Před 2 měsíci +1

      I don't, lacquer will bond to the previous coat. After applying 3-4 coats, I sometimes buff it with finishing paste wax and 0000 steel wool, then a final buff with a rag. But make sure the lacquer is dry, I wait a couple days to do so. This makes it super smooth!
