Thanks so much for joining us today. Have you ever sanded and stained painted MDF furniture? Tell us about your experience!🤗
I am going to be doing!! I have a folding tray table with ruined finish when a Halloween pumpkin decided to decompose 🎃. This video has given me courage to have a go.
This turned out beautiful. I'm glad y'all made this video about mdf furniture. And I really enjoy the scenery and nature clips throughout the videos. Thank you for doing such a great job sharing
Thank you, Mrs. Jax! Yes, we prefer to work on older pieces that aren't MDF BUT those pieces don't always work for our customers. So we work with what we have. And we are sooooo fortunate to have Pops bring his talents to the table with his nature footage, trivia questions and editing. 😘
I watch every video you put out, how did I miss this one?? I googled sanding MDF, and surprise, my two favorite UA-camrs popped up!! Thank you so much! I’m attempting to sand an MDF desk.
Wow, thank you!!! Well I'm glad you found this video then! Let us know if you have any questions!
Oh wow! The second week in March, I was in Phoenix!! It was sooooooo cold!
Had I known, that beautiful sewing machine would have gone home with me!
I know, right? Not are usual weather this year. Shoot, that would have been great. I think we are going to have to take it to Goodwill. Thanks for watching, Ducky!
What a fun piece! Love the pop of color!
Thanks Holly! Boy, it really is a pop of color and it looks great in their house! Thanks for watching!😍
Wow. Beautiful. What a transformation. Your clients must be so happy.
😍 Thank you so much, Tracy! We actually just got the last coat of poly on it this morning and the clients haven't seen it yet. I hope they love it...🙏
I absolutely love y'all's Videos and I am Super Happy that You are using my Gel stain Pad ziplock freezer door reuse trick... Saves Having to Throw away the pads so fast...Love how Sherry was Running behind with dolly 😂😂❣️anddd Dani Saying "WE" When We KNOW Moms Is Scuff Sanding and Cleaning 😂😂😂😂😂😂... The Both of You are the Absolute BEST...
Love supporting My AZ Furniture Diy Families🥰👍❣️❣️❣️
😂😂😂 Debra, you are the BEST! Love you, Girl!😘
Beautiful transformation! Love the color.
Thank you, Kay!!! So glad you like it!😘🤗
This really turned out great! And I thought it was my dirty fixer upper🤣
Haha ... very funny, Lavonne! Thank you for watching, my firend!😍😘
That’s wonderful!
Thank you, Tammy!!!😍
So glad that James Bondo got a mention this week 😆 Congrats on your win, Dani! Such a gorgeous color and that stain is a perfect contrast. It's spring in a dresser! I hear ya on the temps but we need to be careful what we wish for, end of the week they're already predicting over 90°. Eek! I have a desk with this type of finish/veneer, now I'm confident about sanding down to the veneer. Love it ladies, this turned out beautiful 😍🧡🌵
Oh my, we are not ready for 90 yet. Yikes!!! Thanks so much, Jenn!!!😮🙃😎
This is so beautiful
Hi Kathleen, thank you so much! 😘
Ohhh I Love the Finished Piece.sooo beautiful 🥰👍
Thank you! 🤗😘🤗
@@secondchanceohana you Both are the best🥰❣️❣️
beautiful finish
Thank you so much, Janet😘
Very very nice transformation. Once again you saved my train of thought since i am sanding a vaneer, if i blow through it, i can fix it!
Thanks, Dar. I know ... we always get super nervous when sanding thin veneer on MDF but that gel stain really helps to cover those semi-bare spots😀
This turned out so beautiful. You guys have inspired me to try to breathe new life into my MDF dresser, which is also that shiny black laquer. Thanks for this video and for making it so doable for a newbie like myself! 😊
Yay! Thanks. That sounds like a great plan. MDF can be challenging, especially with sanding. Good luck with it!😀
Lol it's colder in here in Canada. You can't acclimate to you kind of cold if it's never that "cold". We consider 33°f warm here😃
I know.... we are so spoiled here during the winter. This year it's been a little cooler, usually by March we are hitting average highs in the 70's. But before you know it, we will be whining about the heat. 😬 Thanks for watching, Jade!🤗
Simply Gorgeous 😍
😘 Thank you, Marie!!!! Our clients/friends are thrilled with it and so are we!😀
Turned out beautifully 🤩 I am glad you talked about the sprayer. I am hoping to get that one soon. You have sold me! The one my husband got me I think is made more for walls and fences but I haven’t had the heart to tell him 😳😊 Way to go ladies 👏🏻
Hi Larissa! Thank you and I don't think we talked price in the video but the Fuji is a a pretty penny. Well worth it though! Thanks for watching, Sweetie!😘
Yeah I know it is 💰 but if it does a good job it is worth it 😊
@@cookinginthecabin ABSOLUTELY! Oh my, what a DIFFERENCE it makes!
Wow that's amazing. You did a great job. Thanks for the tip re gel stain.the only one I can get in the UK is dixie belle voodoo gel stain.
Thanks, Annemarie! Really? Wow, there are lots of different brands over here. But I hear the D. B. voodoo is a really good one. You should try it. 😀
This turned out so beautiful I wasn’t sure about that green but the stained wood toned it down. I have stained veneer over mdf multiple times and yes like you said it is very thin. I love gel stain so much more than penetrating stain.
Hi Annetta! Thanks so much! The green looks a little deeper and darker indoors so we think it is going to look great in our friend's house but if it doesn't we will deepen the color a bit and repaint. It is so easy with the sprayer. Yay, for gel stain! What brand and colors are your favorites? We are thinking about trying some others but it is so expensive, we don't want to try products we aren't going to like. 🤗
@@secondchanceohana I like varathane gel stain, Dixie belle gel stain. Both have deep colors.
I have had good experiences with using a stripper to get that black finish off of MDF. I use Klean Strip 15 minute stripper. It is smelly, but if you wear a good respirator, you can't smell it at all. It works really fast and it's worth it to not sand through the veneer. Good job on the transformation!
Thank you, Katie! I have tried a couple different ones that didn't seem to do much so gave up on strippers. I will see if I can find that one, I don't see it on Amazon but will check our local Home Depot. 😍
Hello from Casa Grande!
Hi Roseann! So fun to hear from "neighbors". Thanks for watching!
Lovely transformation but to anyone who views this, please ALWAYS wear a respirator when spraying.
Thanks, Charlotte! Yes, we totally agree and unfortunately, forget to do that sometimes. The same is true for sanding. 😬
I'm surprised that there is only one other comment pointing that you are NOT staining MDF. You are staining wood veneer which is the same as staining any other wood. The title of your video is misleading.
Technically, that is true! The big challenge with this is that we had to remove a thick layer of paint off of a very thin layer of veneer. Thinner than the average veneers that we have encountered (and it was probably our first large piece that was made of MDF substrate).
Another furniture flipper uses a car sponge from the dollar store.she just cuts up the sponge.
Instead of a staining pad? We'll have to give that a try! Thanks for passing that on. We are always learning new things!😍
I’ll take the sewing machine if it is a Singer.
Hi Tracy, it is a White and it is oh so heavy (cast iron). Do you live in the Phoenix area? Our email is secondchanceohana@ gmail.com. Let us know if you are still interested. Thanks!
Dear friend, good video, my prayers and cooperation with you,
Thanks for the visit, Decent wood art! We really appreciate your friendship and prayers!!!🤗🙏
I'm curious why you don't use stripper ....
Aloha Janet! Well. a couple of reasons ... I don't like using it and I haven't found one that works very well. BUT, we really should. What stripper do you use?🤗
@@secondchanceohana I have only a little experience, but have good results with CitriStrip ...... less toxic and smelly ..... I've learned it often takes a couple applications AND of course, there are lots of hints & tips here on YT to try .....
Am I missing something?! This isn’t MDF?!
Yes, it is MDF with a thin layer of wood veneer on the surface.
@@secondchanceohana my point is that you’re not staining “MDF”. You’re essentially just staining hardwood as it has grain. The two are completely separate from one another.
To be an actual demonstration of staining MDF would be exactly that, fibreboard with no grain.
Ok. Yes, that is true. We would not try to stain actual MDF without veneer.
