Well done, I nice professional look using modern materials.

I've watched about a dozen furniture refinishing videos so far, and yours is the best. Clear process, well-documented, and an outstanding result.

Wow what a beautiful finish!

That table is gorgeous.

Beautiful! Love how you made everything blend ❤️

Just beautiful. I am a trained carpenter in Germany and You have really inspired me to start doing woodworking projects again. Been a carpenter for 27 years now but Never really enjoyed it. But NOW since i have been watching your vids i finally enjoy it again( also makes my wife Happy as well) . Thank you. Also Love it when your dog is there helping too.😁😁

Goodness!!!!!! Speechless!!!! Simply beautiful!!!!

I love the way you love what you do. It shows in your work. ITS ART.

Just gorgeous!

Excellent job!!

Gorgeous!!

Fantastic job!

Beautiful , refinishing work.

Nice work... its good to see someone do a job right.

Really beautiful. Gorgeous table. Love you work. Your voice is so peaceful and walking your dog is just lovely. A pleasure to watch.

Oh, you are so smart. I'm watching little details. I like your system for cutting your sandpaper. I have never thought of that. You could even add a ruler on there, if you needed a certain size, like I do with my palm sander. I usually just trace the previous piece. I like your idea better! Thanks!👍

SO LOVELY!

Looks amazing

I love this table.Thank you I like your video 😊

Great to watch you work and also love the dog! You are so talented.

Gorgeous.

Beautiful!

You gave me the faith to do my dining room table!! Great job!!

Not too shabby! Thank you!

Love it, nice job👌

Wow amazing!!!!!!!!

Looks great!

I will try that. Thank you!

OMG! Lovely.

Beautiful

Perfect table for two!

I see you restrained from changing the table legs color to black! Good choice on customer request. Great job!

Love Bucko!!!

Beautiful job! I wish you lived closer, I have a table top that needs a lot of TLC. Thought about trying my hand at it, but not confident enough. Great beard by the way...

OMG! That's almost like my table. but that's a lot of work. I think I'll just put a cover on my table for now.

Thank you for your this. My father in law was a French polisher by trade. As a hobby he refurbished ercol pieces for use again. And some old oak tables. He died sadly last week and I want to continue with the work as a hobby as an apprentice. So I am needing.lots of help to get me started on a kitchen drop leaf ercol table. Many thanks. You are a proper craftsman. Respect Sir.

Great job

Unbelievable beauty and workmanship. The table never looked as beautiful when new. You are a master of your craft. This masterpiece belongs in a museum. Thanks for a great video.

Excellent work dude

Thanks for the video.

Nice works man

Nice job

I’m going to try this with our dining room table. Lots of scratches in it but worth trying.

You matched the original add-on leaf ! Mahogany (brown or red) tone is often used bring red to cherry wood furniture. I have a cheery desk and bedroom furniture that color.

very nice bro! wish I was half as good as you.

Truth be told... I'm not sure if I'm giving you thumbs up for your outstanding work or your Speedy Gonzalez pup. Man... he's fast!!

Just beautiful. Very helpful for a beginner trying to refinish an Ethal Allen dining room table.

This is another great video. What a beautiful finished product! You're an artist. I would love to see you add at the end of your videos a list of products and tools that you use. Thanks for posting this video. Stay safe.

Great video, wish I had the confidence to do this myself. Can I ask what something like this would cost? I have similar table and 8 chairs that have been in the family many years. I live in Scottsdale, Az. Thank you.

Oh my, this looks amazing! I'm watching videos on how to stain a table and whatnot as I just thrifted a table of about this one's color (but much smaller, only a bit over 4 feet long and it's round). Thankfully, the bottom half is wrought iron, so I don't need to do anything there, but the top has yellow marks on it and maybe a few small chips. The chips I can deal with...the yellow markings, I cannot and it's a pretty table that doesn't deserve to be hidden with a table cloth, lol. So, as one who has absolutely never done something like this before...I'm scared but I'm determined to learn! Thank you for the video and again, very beautiful result :)

Top job nicely finished.....Bill ....McCormack an Sons Furniture Restrorations

Beautiful Workmanship ! Beautiful matching finished outcome ! i think it looks better than the original. What i'm really baffled by is what kind of original finish did this piece have to gum up like it did ? Most finishes get harder with age.

I have the same table! Could you share the exact type of stain you used in the restoration?

those table legs are amazing

Best part of the video: puppy walk❣️🐶❣️😃 Just kidding, good work, thanks for sharing! 👍🤎

Loved your video, gives me more confidence to do this on my own. Just wondering, because I have been shopping around for a good gel stripper and can't seem to find one that works as well as the one you used in your video. Which one did you use, if it's okay to ask?

Beautiful job..what do you use to Strip furniture? Thanks

Fantastic video, and really nice work! What product of stripper do you recommend for removing the finish?

Very nice finish!!! I have an antique oak table I want to refinish. It has been stripped but there are some water marks I'll need to remove first. I've never used oxalic acid before any advice??

Hello, I am going to restore my dining table and changing the color from brown to dark walnut, I stripped the table surface, but what you will recommend me to do if I don't want to strip the 4 chairs? if I can paint them with a similar color paint? Thanks.

Should I condition the wood after sanding? I'm working on a 1970's dining table. Ty

I don't know if this is an appropriate, but how much did you charge them ? I have a table similar and it needs to be rescued big time. I'm trying to find out what's a good fair price to pay.

Absolutely love this!! Has become a staple dish in my family's diet. Thank you so much.

What stain was this please ? Thanks and I hope you’re still out there doing beautiful work

I have that same EA table! With the same problem. It's 20 + years old and the finish is all cloudy looking. Need to find someone to refinish it.

Spectacular results! I would have liked more discussion of what products you used, or (if you want to stay proprietary) at least a discussion regarding how to think about what products to use. For example, how do we think about the layers of the various coats - e.g. what each coat does for the final product. Also, you diluted some products. It would have been nice to discuss why. Clearly, this is your business. So, it would be totally understandable if you don't want to discuss some of the details. However, since you went to the trouble of making the video and mentioning some of the products then a little more perspective on those would be greatly appreciated. However, thanks for the video! It shows a lot about how a pro does the work. (And, if I lived in your area I would just let you do it; cause, after all, you are the pro.)

I bought a maple kitchen oval table with 6 chairs for $100. The new furniture I bought is dark brown to black. The table has spilled paint on the top. I was thinking of scraping the paint off and cleaning it with TSP and finishing with brown/black chalk paint and use spray cans of matt polyurethane finish What are your thoughts

1 million and one for wood but I have been online for a couple hours trying to find a restoration of an acrylic coffee table. They show how to make acrylic top but not change/paint/restore a top “sigh” me a link I would appreciate it thanks in advance 😊 Great job on the table too, very nice!!

Would you recommend a wood conditioner for someone who isn’t experienced with staining? I’m worried about streaks and inconsistencies. Thanks!

Absolutely beautiful ! I have the exact same Ethan Allen British classic dining room table . Bought it in 1997. It is in desperate need of refinishing along with 6 chairs 4 side and 2 arm . Can you give me any idea of how much this would cost ?

After your stained it you then used sandpaper. What grit and why did you use sandpaper? I want to refinish my table and trying to learn how to do it correctly. Great job by the way!!

If you don’t have a sprayer can you use a brush to put the lacquer on.

What did you use?

Why you didn't same process for the legs ?

Love your work. I was wondering if you could recommend a stain that is close to Ethan Allen #214 wheat. I am trying to refinish a bench to somewhat match a dresser I have in that color. I tried Touch Up Solutions but they don’t have stain. Can you recommend a stain that I could use? Thanks.

Is that top veneer? My dining set is 30 yrs old. It has a gouge in the top from moving and I was wondering, if my top is veneer can veneer can be stripped, sanded and refinished?

What brand of lacquer are you using. It turned out great!

Did you sand those legs or just clean?

What are your thoughts on water based polyurethane for a dinner table top? I'm going to be refinishing a 20 year old Ethan Allen table.

Hi John, can I spray water base top coat?

can i know which stain are u using

What kinda wood is that?

I have put on 5 coats of lacquer every time I get little dust or something that makes it feels a little ruff. how do I get the top smooth?

If I want to paint a table would I used the same process? What would I use to seal the paint on top with to protect from stains and scratches? 🤔

Hello, I don't know if you reply, but I am here in Texas and trying to repairing my table for my daughter's 25 birthday party. This is the second 'foot' that has broken and in attempting to fix it, I noticed that another one had broken on the other end. As I was taking it apart and to repair it, I think I may have discovered what the problem is. But I don't know how to fix it (or not sure) or even what these parts are called. My dinning room table seats 12, so it's large, and has two pedestal 'legs' on it. Each leg has three arched shaped feet with brass covers on the tips. The feet are attached with a three pronged metal bracket on the bottom and a metal 'slide' attached to the foot that allows it slide into a fitted metal insert bracket on the leg. What I have discovered is that several of the 'metal slides' just slip right out so all the weight of the table is on the foot and bottom bracket and not supported by being anchored in the slide.on the leg. We do move our table around a lot when entertaining, remodeling, redecorating etc, but we try to be extra careful with the feet. But obviously with three broken feet, we have some issues. So I am wondering if you are familiar with these brackets/slides and if you know where I can purchase new ones OR fix the existing ones so the legs don't slip out when pressure is applied. You can Email me at thecarrs@sbcglobal.net I appreciate your help, and enjoy your channel!

What is the difference in the tint coat lacquer and the top clear coat lacquer...also could you have just used the top clear coat ?

What spray sealer did you use?

Can I put on a coat of oil-based poly over water-based poly?

Hi John, what type of stripper did you use for this project?

liked the video. i have a solid acacia wood table that was fininshed with mineral oil. can i strip the mineral oil off and apply a polyurethane finish to it?

What stain and top coat product did you use?

So what can be used to safely clean a table like this? I have always used just a basic cloth and soapy water after a meal, and then murphys soap. I am worried now that I might have contributed to the demise of our old table??

Question: I need to refinish the top to my dining room table. I ruined the finish on it several years ago. It has a veneer on the top and I can't imagine sanding it that aggressively. Suggestions?

How much did this cost

Not all of us have these fancy tools😢😢😢 you should advise in case you don't have these tools, what we should use😢😢😢

Hi, how much do you charge for a table this size? I have a family member wanting this done and not sure how much to charge her. I’ve done lots of projects, just not a table.
