Need Advice On Tv Console And Doors?

[pmetsg 0]

Hi

Some of my furnitures, TV console and wooden doors especially, look old but still in good condition. I wonder is there services out there to help revanish/repaint to give them a new look? Do those professional painters provide such service? I can't and have no time to do DIY and throwing away is heartache. Please advice. Thanks.

1st n foremost you might want to check whether are your furniture real timber type?

cos the solid timber type then they could b sand papered and re varnish.

if laminate type, i dun think can re varnish

most painters of houses they will only varnish with a layer of lacquer but not sandpapering the thing and repainting. the results would not b tt nice but still acceptable in most instances

They are real timber wood type. How much time and effort are required to sandpaper and revarnish? Where do I find guide on how to do it? And what is the cost like? Sorry for so many question but I have no such experience. Thanks.

Do a search on google and youtube. You will get detailed guides.

Much cheaper to do it yourself.
