I paid $250 for 7 Days of Torture... Refurbishing a Previously Painted Mid Century Dresser!

amzlink.to/az0wyAAWHCsnY
HOW I DID IT! 👇🏼✨🙌🏻🤔
I got this Harmony House dresser for $200 off of @Facebook Marketplace… plus $50 for delivery 😅 I’m not really sure what I was thinking taking on a fully painted piece, but I felt the urge to save this one! It was clear there was a TON of veneer damage underneath that paint.. which I didn’t know about until she dropped it off. So here’s how I handled it!
Pssstttt…here's the link to the full list of supplies I used - amzlink.to/az0wyAAWHCsnY
+ stripped with @Klean Strip
+ sanded with 120 and 180 grit using my ‪@FestoolDeutschland‬
+ used my carbide scraper to scrape off the paint on the legs
+ used ‪@MohawkFinishing‬ pre colored epoxy (medium brown color.. it matches walnut perfectly!) to even out any of the previous repairs and some additional veneer chips
+ used a lacquer thinner & wire brush to scrub out all the paint left in the grain (thank you ‪@refurbishedish‬ for the tip!!!)
+ applied #Minwax gel stain in the color Walnut
+ used my veneer paint kit to color match my repairs
+ applied LOTSSSS of ‪@MinwaxUSA‬ based wipe on polyurethane
What do you think?!?! I know I’m gonna take a huge loss on this one because of the hours I put into it and the ridiculous price I paid to begin with. But, it was definitely a good before and after if I do say so myself!
And here's the list of items I used for this flip - amzlink.to/az0wyAAWHCsnY

I just stumbled upon your page and it's a breath of fresh air to see a furniture flipper actually restore furniture by bringing the wood back to life instead of throwing some chalk paint on a piece. Nice work!
