I accidently pour water on it and now it got a stain. It absorbs water but no bubble. How do I remove the stain? It would be so much pleasure if you could help me.
Holly cow !! I was going to throw out hundreds of laminated particle boards boards I have saved over the years!!! You ROCK!! If you can give us in the USA the wattage of the melter- (Konig site does not reveal it) we can buy appropriate solder Iron. I think a wide flat chisel wood burning tip would do the job. Just needs to be similar temp. Keep up great work.
Came across this to see if I could save the carcass of my kitchen cabinets. They are chipboard and few corners gone. This is brilliant. Seems such a waste to pull them out to replace with almost the same. The doors are MDF shaker style and they successfully took the laminate off and painted them. My question is, would it be possible to change the colour? Can I paint over the laminate on the chipboard part successfully?
I never knew this tool existed. I have some corners with puffed up space between the veneer. Could the wood be soaked and squeezed into position and let dry, or could the particle boar be dug out so that the veneers meet at the corners again? I don't really want to remove huge chunks of material and fill it with wax
@@TheRestorer crazy idea, but makeup supply shops- TKB trading in California sells raw ingredients. you can buy many types of waxes- yes carnuba, also some others that are even "harder" (based on melt temp) then you can buy oxides color powders.(pot the mic types, they sparkle a bit, just oxide) use double boiler when heating waxes, Put wax in can (soup can works well) fill pot with inch or so water. Add oxides slowly. For black you may want to use more than black oxide. Possibly doctor it with some red and green. You can buy all their items in sample size (teaspoon of color goes a long way, and waxes are a tablespoon) to see if it works. $1.65 ea. I checked ETSY- no one sells the selection of colors to repair particleboard this way.......maybe a niche market?
I have a coffee table that has bigger chips on edges, i noticed it has particle board inside which has expanded somewhat and wood vaneer (darker color like darker walnut perhaps, on top which chiped off how do I fix something like that?
I sent you an email for some recommendations on how to restore something in my home. I would greatly appreciate your help and look forward to hearing back from you. Thank you!
I'm trying to reattach a laminate strip to a particle board edge, the glue gets absorbed by the particle board and won't hold the strip in place. Do you know how to do this?
Put a layer of glue on Patrick’s board edge’ (wood glue) spread it even with a tiny brush’ Let it dry!!! You have in essence sealed that edge’ now glue your strip to it’ To skip all that go get a small bottle of contact cement’ (Not that rubber crap from school) legit contact cement’ You put it on both surfaces Strip/ edge Wait 10-15 mins for it to tack now put strip on’
@@TheRestorer or rather everyday household items or things you can easily get from a hardware store. Buying, and then learning to use a soldering iron requires practice and learning of skill.

Very complicated, take to much time to fix, best solution check and see if it is Particle Board or cheap material. When humidity or water hit it start to break apart. The best is to buy real wood don't spend thousands of dollars on cheap material that does't last for years. To place in the kitchen, bedroom, living room and ect. Ask yourself is this furniture worth this price. If your conscious say no. Don't buy it. Be patient and you will find the right one for the right price or even less it work for me. You better of useing uses ones that are real wood and repainting it. It last longer. Before I buy a furniture I check the materials, not the beauty, beauty can deceive and see if this break can I fix it. People that buy this type furniture with thousands of dollars are being deceived. Don't be take in for a fool. With amount of money you could buy tool and the material and make it yourself to last.
You are right. But not everyone can buy wooden furniture - they are very expensive. Many designers and craftsmen use chipboard in their projects. Therefore, you need to know how to easily repair minor damage to chipboard and MDF
If you have any questions, ask them in the comments.
I will try to answer everything!
Thanks for watching the video!)

Hello! You need to see a photo of the damage. I think you can paint everything.
Wonderful. Thank you so much for the tips.
Thanks!)

Where do you get the different tips for the soldering irons? The ones I'm seeing only have the pointed tip.
You can buy different tips for the soldering iron (straight tip and tip in the form of a spatula)
How to buy please i need urgent

I am very grateful for this video! Could I make repair wax from beeswax and acrylic paint? This product cannot be bought here...
No. Because it is not beech wax, but carnauba wax (wax from a palm tree). Just buy ready waxes for furniture restoration. It would be better.
@@TheRestorer thank you for answer and explanation, you are so nice!

I have a coffee table that has bigger chips on edges, i noticed it has particle board inside which has expanded somewhat and wood vaneer (darker color like darker walnut perhaps, on top which chiped off how do I fix something like that?
Fill the damaged chip with hard furniture waxes
What is the name of paint to use for the whiteboard?
When does the wax get used verses when the putty gets used???
For large damage, use putty, for small and medium damage, you can use hard wax
what is the tool called that you are using?
How do you cover a wrecked screw hole that you need to reuse?
fill the hole with two-part wood putty
Do i repair holes make by over screwing the same way?. The screw went slightly though the board so it up ended the top part of the board.
Where do you get the plastic spatula from I can’t find one anywhere? And the blue soldering iron is it battery operated? Thanks
Blue soldering iron on batteries, but there is also a soldering iron on gas.
Where do you live? You can buy it online
@@TheRestorer thanks for the comment I’m from the UK. What’s the spatula called? Thanks
@@TheRestorer yes what is the exact name of this spatula that you use to purchase this sanding device?
How do you clean furniture that is made out of particle board that has cigarette residue on it?
Clean the traces of cigarettes and restore the damaged areas with restoration hard waxes

Hi !

What glue do you use?
@@TheRestorer I've mostly tried super glue, should I be using regular wood glue? Sorry, newbie here...

To skip all that go get a small bottle of contact cement’

You put it on both surfaces
Strip/ edge
Wait 10-15 mins for it to tack now put strip on’
Love it
Hi can you help me
Title should be "how to was a particle board".
Thanks for the advice)
Apparently wax is the only solution to repair this poor material.
😉😎👍
TLDR: Solder with furniture wax... Not useful if you don't have either...
And what would you use? You still need to buy something for repairs)
