Varnished mahogany sideboards lose their shiny lustre through time and require restoration to regain their original cosmetic pristine appearance. For those initiated in the business of re-varnishing furniture they have the experience to recognise it is a slow intensive process with no real all singing and dancing solution. There are traditionally a number of options for stripping varnish back but they all have their disadvantages and shortcomings. The dilemma for the painter or operative is combining their skills with the solutions at their disposal to achieve the best results possible. You want a varnish stripper that is primarily effective but also safe to use. The reality up to now has been that none of the available solutions were either safe or totally effective. The problem with removing varnish is how to ensure the base is not compromised through accidental scratching or damage so the new coat will not reflect any imperfections in the mahogany base. Unfortunately there is no guarantee of that status with traditional methods of varnish removal and that can present added pressure to providing a perfect re-varnish finish. Only the highly honed skills of a professional operative can provide any modicum of reassurance in this respect. Traditional methods all represent less than perfect solutions of varnish removal. Solvents produce noxious vapours, sanding produces harmful dust and heat treatment produces fumes and even smoke which can be hurtful to both eyes and airways.
