I think it's just because all of the old green paint didn't come out. I get your point though. It looks like primer, so another color might have been better.
I don't like the grey paint either, but I can see why he did it. Sanding all the green out would have removed far too much material, and I'm not sure even bleaching would have worked. The stained parts are beautiful.
On the sides, the green paint has completely penetrated the first layer of plywood. It was impossible to get rid of the paint except with very hard sanding. Actually, I thought I bought matte khaki green acrylic paint, but it turned out to be the usual grey. I think it would be nice if I could find someone who could draw beautiful patterns on it :)
Wonderful job on this restoration, my friend! 👍 I can't believe that someone spray painted the dresser such an awful shade of green. But, I was totally amazed at what you did with the piece. The fact that you knew what you could save and refinished those parts beautifully... but, what you couldn't save you painted. Thanks, Ismail
I love that shade of green. Would like to have seen this dresser freshly painted. Can't tell what wood that is. This came out looking good! I felt the green would not entirely sand out or strip clean. The grey looks great against the natural wood tone!
I've seen a lot of paint techniques, dye jobs, batik, tie-dye... but I haven't a clue what that green stuff was or how they got that finish. What a mess. Great job cleaning that up!
Thank you very much. This is the first time I encounter such a stubborn paint. And of course it's completely ingrained into the first layer of plywood on the sides.
Excellent work! I think it's easier to remove the knobs before you strip the old paint or finish off the drawers. You can either put tape on the inside of the drawer front or just reverse the knobs so they are inside and only the head of the screw is on the side you are stripping.
Если уж не получилось полностью очистить бока и верх от зеленого оттенка, я бы замаскировала его более гармоничной светло-коричневой краской, чтоб гармонировала с прекрасным рисунком дерева. Серый все испортил, он как будто кислород перекрыл прекрасному началу фасада.
I Think Calling It a "Hulk" Dresser was Correct. It Sure Made Me a little Angry Looking at It. I Also Got some "Green Eggs and Ham" vibes When You were Scraping the Paint off! Amazing Work! Painting was a Great Solution for the Piece. I Had a Feeling that Green Paint was going to Fight back! Beauty! Your Cat steals the Show!😸😸😼
To have colored the insides of the body and drawers was some kind of dedication, and yet for all that dedication, it was such a haphazard job. I've never seen a paint-like substance crinkle up like cellophane before, and still be obviously stubborn at coming off. Incredible, indeed. It might've looked nice with an even coat of a transparent more-'plant'-less-'kelly' green stain, but whatever was used was not that. Looks so much better, back to natural.
*An absolutely STUNNING TRANSFORMATION...going from a graffiti green puking Hulk disaster to a handsome chest of drawers - mesmerizing us with his charming stature and the incredible woodgrain highlights of his masculine physique.*
Nice to see that you have a proper Quality Assurance manager on the scene! I hope they got proper payment in treats. I have to say, I love the color green, but even this was a bit much. Thank you for making it lovely!
It is a shame you had to paint the top and sides of that dresser, but it still turned out way better than what it was before you got ahold of it! Another beautiful refinishing job !!!
Harika çalışma elinize sağlık, ama beyaz yerine koyu kahve tonu tercih etseydiniz yada ahşaba yakın renk ,sanki daha mı iyi olacaktı. Olsun bu da güzel elinize sağlık
Çok teşekkür ederim. Doğrusunu isterseniz, internette haki yeşil akrilik boya gördüm ve çok hoşuma gitmişti, ama kargoyla gelen boya bildiğimiz gri çıktı.
Vaaaay kardeşim yine döktürdünüz oldukça yorucu bi çalışma olduğunuda biliyoruz ellerinize sağlık ama kırığı çıkığı daha fazla olan tamir gerektiren objeleri tercih etseniz süper olacak takipteyiz sevgiler
Hey RM Wow, looked like someone tried to strip the dresser a couple of times and gave up. Cudos to you, that was a lot of work. Was that green tinted shellac or something on it? Great outcome my Friend. Take care of Yourself 😊
Thank you very much Tim. I don't think a natural polish like shellac would be this stubborn, it was the work of the devil :)) Take care of yourself too my dear friend.
I did wonder how deep into the wood grain that hideous green paint would have seeped. Nice that the beautiful woodgrain pattern on the drawer front could be salvaged, and painting the rest was really the only other option.
Fantastic job on all the timber but the grey on the plywood kills it for me. Maybe a veneer on the top and sides or black japanning. Anyway still a great job, especially all the repair work.🤗🇦🇺
Bravissimo, la cassettiera verde di Hulk ha preso un' altro aspetto!!... Complimenti sei proprio bravo e bellissima la cassettiera!!... Un saluto cordiale!!...❤😊
Мне тоже не очень понравилась серая окраска.Цвет нужно было сделать более мягким или же темно коричневый.Но работа по восстановлению выполнена прекрасно.Комод выгдядит отлично.❤❤❤❤
My brother and I have been building/refurbing furniture for years and we are getting ready to open a furniture business but we are going to specialize in 3/4 furniture that is used for Tiny houses, pull behind RV's/Campers and small apartments, that whole genre is a HUGE market because more and more people are going tiny and are getting back into RV/Camper family vacations and there is very little retail outlet for it b4cause more often than not it has to serve more than 1 purpose and we want to be that outlets for that. For instance this dresser, take the top drawer out put a piece of plywood on the bottom and drill a hole in the center with a hole saw bit in the back and you have and entertainment center for a tiny house/apartment, add some I hooks to the side and you have an and a pots and pans rack for a Camper/RV that you can also use to store food in.
I like it, but I think I would have painted a different color. 😊. I would have liked to see a narrative, such as what you were painting on the wood….. was it shellac? 😊
Thank you. Yes, you're right, this wasn't actually the paint color I ordered, but I used it anyway. Maybe I can find someone talented who can draw nice patterns on it :) I talk to people a little less these days, I think this is reflected in the video :) I used Burma color stain, "old English" oil and lacquer on a part that I did not film.
@@Restomaniac maybe you could use subtitles if you don’t care to speak. 🌸. Thank you for the information! Maybe try running a dry brush color through your gray? 😀
don't get the gray paint but the rest is gorgeous. Great job overall.

I don't like the grey paint either, but I can see why he did it. Sanding all the green out would have removed far too much material, and I'm not sure even bleaching would have worked. The stained parts are beautiful.

you have given dignity back to this chest of drawers. Congratulations on the result
Thank you so much Luca, it's great to receive compliments from you 😀🙏
A navy paint over the gray would look good with the stain color. Easy fix. The wood part looks great.
Thank you :)
Turned out beautiful, so much better than it was! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much :)
Every piece of wood must be sighing, "THANK YOU for rescuing us from that green prison!" Good job.
Thank you so much :)

Congratulations brother, it was a work that required incredible patience and effort. The result is magnificent, the color is magnificent.👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you very much brother :)
I actually kinda liked the green, always wanted to see a deep emerald green piece of furniture with brass hardware.
Gorgeous!! But how did you repair the broken knob???
I was wondering that, too 😅
same
Thank you. I didn't film that part. But I made a small addition and sanded it :)
@@Restomaniac it looks amazing!!
It is incredible. Stripping chemicals and not protected hands. Overall great job.
Thank you :)
Green paint has to be the worst color to try to remove from wood. Kudos to you for this piece, looks beautiful!
Thank you 😊🤗

Nice restoration👍😊

Given how much that green paint had stained the wood, this is the best possible outcome I think. It's a million times better than it started out.
Thank you 😊🤗
Well done. Great video
