If you have old wooden furniture such as a table, chairs or even antiques that have been passed down generations, it’s important that you take care when stripping old varnish from their surface. Your furniture may hold sentimental value to you and your family, which makes it even more important that you handle it with care. One wrong move and you could be left with irreversible damage to your wooden furniture. If you were to choose a classic method of stripping varnish, it could create serious damage to your old furniture, which may be in a fragile state due to its age.
Some tired methods of removing varnish from old wooden furniture include burning off the varnish with a blowtorch. If that sounds extreme and a little much for sensitive surfaces like old furniture, we completely agree. If you value your old furniture and want to preserve its condition as best you can, you should avoid turning to potentially damaging varnish removal methods such as this.
So, how can you strip and remove varnish from old wooden furniture without leaving defects?
