Old furniture, whether a treasured heirloom or consignment shop find, is
often better made than anything that can be bought today. So, why let
damaged finishes detract from a beautiful piece when you can repair or
refinish it in a way that preserves the piece and makes it look as good
as new? Author Jeff Jewitt, a professional refinisher with over 30
years' experience, shares his tricks, shortcuts, and tools of the trade
in Refinishing Furniture Made Simple, an easy-to-follow
book/DVD set that is sure to fly off the shelves.
Weekend refinishers as well as professional woodworkers will benefit
from the insider tips on how to evaluate the condition of a piece to
decide the best strategy for rejuvenating it, repair and revive finishes
to enhance their beauty while preserving their patina, and match an old
finish for a seamless look.
