I get asked A LOT about why/when I would choose to scrape, strip, or just sand a finish off. I actually do all three of these on different parts of this piece, so thought I would explain why I'm choosing one over another depending on what the finish is like.
This beautiful, but pretty banged up mid century dresser had a TON of finish problems on the top; dark water rings, white water marks, flaking finish, missing finish, and a decent sized piece of missing veneer.
I used oxalic acid to remove the dark stains, and made a patch for the missing veneer. My patch isn't perfect, but it's a million times better than it was!!
