Folding Table - Black (20 x 48")


Hi,I did the following:
How do I take the finish off my tables and apply a new darker finish?I just bought a coffee table set and thought that it would match the rest of the room,well it doesn't.It looks like crap,so we are stuck with these tables that dont match,they are a light oak color and everything else is dark brown.Is there a way for me to take the light finish off of these tables and apply a new darker finish?

All you need to do is sand it down, an electric sander would really help a lot for that job. After it's all sanded down, get all the dust off of it, and go to town painting it with the new finish.

1. Strip using a chemical stripper
2. Do a light sanding
3. Stain
4. Apply a top coat

If you've never done this before, I'd suggest getting the book below from your library. It's not difficult, but you need a bit of knowledge to keep you from messing up.

It's quite a process, but you can do it. You will have to get a stripper. There are some that just strip off the finish (clear coat), and some that only strip out the stain, which is what makes it that oak color. The first is K-3 Premium Stripper, and the second would be Strip-X in a red can...I used to work at a big orange home improvement store... ;) There are a few exceptions that will strip off both (I think Bix Tuff Job), but it would still be a two-step process just to remove the clear coat then the color.

Once you have done all that, it's good to use an after wash, which cleans up any residue left behind by the stripper products. It's not necessary, but good to get that off so you have a clean, ready-to-stain surface.

Then you're ready to stain it the dark brown you want. I am most familiar with Minwax products, so you might want Dark Walnut or Jacobean, depending on how dark you want it. Put on some latex gloves...It is called stain for a reason, and it will stain your skin! Always go from one side of the table to the other, following the wood grain. (If you stop mid-way, then you will have funny overlap marks, so it's always best to go from one end to the other in the same series of strokes.) You will want to use a natural bristle brush for this. Follow the directions for sanding and applying another coat if you feel it needs it.

Providing you used a standard oil-based stain (Minwax in a yellow can), you will need a polyurethane (metallic gold, silver, or bronze can) for your clear coat. This helps seal in the color and seal out any liquid and protect your wood. (Both of these products are oil-based and you will need mineral spirits to clean your brushes if you decide to keep them.) There is a satin, semi-gloss, and gloss...in order of how shiny they are. This one is more up to you as to which you use, but you may want to match some of the other furniture in the house. Some stores will have a sample of what these finishes look like. Follow the directions on this can as well, which usually involves sanding and refinishing with another topcoat if desired.

It's not easy and some people are overwhelmed by the process it takes to refinish furniture, but if you're willing to put the work into it, it can be totally worth it! Good luck and I hope this helps you!!
