LET'S REFURBISH SOME CHAIRS👩‍🔧| DIY Dining Chair Repair

[@dard4642]

Good job! In the future, the chairs don't need to be scuffed as well as you did them. Primer blocks the color of the old surface from the bleeding through the new surface but it also acts like an emulsifier in that it allows two products to stick together that usually wouldn't. Example: your paint would not adhere well to that finished surface. BUT, the primer will adhere very well to the finished surface and the paint will adhere to the primer. Also, even though it doesn't look very even, one coat of primer is typically sufficient. You did a better job than was necessary which I find refreshing because most people err on the side of doing less work.

[@cortneytan6337]

Thanks so much for the tips and positive feedback!! I really appreciate learning from my viewers! I’ll definitely keep all of this in mind for my next refurbishment project 🙏🏼

[@pamelaouellette6682]

That's is what I've been wondering... for days for my upcoming project!

[@pamelaouellette6682]

I've been watching videos for hours now and this was the most useful one! I'm not a DIY person and this was the most realistic for a normal person looking to do this work. Thanks!

Hi, I just thrifted two wood chairs today and plan to pain them. Thanks for the advice. Did you find a new job? I hope so, you seem so nice.

[@larrydavis7689]

Thanks! Just got a free chair my neighbor was gonna throw away couldn’t fit it in my car so I took my longboard out and rode it to my house with this big ass chair in hand, gonna repaint and resell with my art on it

[@makeabetterhome8818]

Just found this Video and so... I love your editing. I can definitely learn a couple things from you. Thanks!

[@cortneytan6337]

wow thank you!!

[@lounaaaa8271]

I have 4 chairs like them .... I am going to try what you did

[@alicias.8897]

Hi, After you paint it and has use, how easy is it to clean it from fingerprints with food for example.

[@nykkimcgee]

You’re so good!! I can’t wait for the next video!!

[@timward3116]

Thank you!

[@pamelaouellette6682]

Good Job!!!

[@cortneytan6337]

Thank you!

[@msgt1942]

i dont know why nobody is willing to say it but the chairs looked awesome before restoration. but its ALOT easier to paint for sure.

[@nataliemarshall7158]

Probably because they’re not rude?

[@WheresWes]

Wow. Amaze

[@Alexis-ht2mr]

Your chairs turned out beautiful!! Since making the video, how have they held up? Do you wish you would have sealed them after the spray paint?

[@cortneytan6337]

Hi Alexis! Omg i totally didn’t think of sealing it LOLOL but I want to say so far so good. I think the top coat seal would’ve definitely helped with the longevity of the chairs, but given then I was moving out and my roommate probably wasn’t going to take them with her to her new place, it didn’t seem too important for me. Hope this helps!

[@Percy_VanVentures]

Great video!!! Thank you!!!!

[@RollTheTape]

Where did you move to the valley?

[@Kiikooks]

This was just what I was looking for! Thanks Cortney!

[@cortneytan6337]

You’re welcome!

[@marge3477]

Or you all could use degreaser then Larimer with B-I-Z Then prime paint and a clear polyurethane finish.

[@kris856]

The chairs came out really neat - appreciate your video as I am about to do literally the same today. It's 2022 now- I am glad that people are much wiser now and don't need to wear these face strains which make simple act of breathing unbearable- especially in hot and humid areas

[@maddestroyer934]

Whats the difference between can paint and spray?

[@cortneytan6337]

I found that spray paint was a faster for application and applied a more even coat all around the chair. You are more than welcome to use can paint if you like! It just requires more attention to detail and is less user friendly especially for beginners!

[@Josh333]

to refurnish is to add furniture to a room, I think you mean reFINISH or reFURBISH which is to restore and add a new finish to an item.

[@cortneytan6337]

Ahh thanks for the tip Josh! I’ll make that update now haha.

[@aydriebrown1290]

You have beautiful skin

[@cortneytan6337]

You seem like a nice girl but boy you dragged this out far too much really only wanted to see the work done not a full length film. Sorry you lost your job good luck finding another bless you

I agree. I wanted to see the work not her talking forever. That whole Karen thing is getting old. Apparently you can't even disagree with something or you are a karen. Get over it. Smh

[@taramallory7851]

@@lindsy6640 well it’s pretty easy to keep your ugly opinions to yourself. But that’s too hard for Karen’s, Karen.

[@clairesuzanne1]

Sorry as a lowes employee I can’t watch anyone who shops at Home Depot. I’m sure the product turned out OK though (great if you would’ve used a paint line available at lowes)

[@darkanchordesigns5906]

2 HOURS PER CHAIR? Should take 10 minutes

[@cortneytan6337]

I’d love to see it! Feel free to link your vid showing how to hand sand a chair like this in 10 min.

[@darkanchordesigns5906]

@@cortneytan6337 i legit just sanded, cleaned and painted 6 chairs since this comment

Pics or didnt happen 🥱

[@rosepetal5253]

I have arthritis, what's the issue with just starting with the electric sander?

[@cortneytan6337]

Personally I was going for the cheapest option and was open to the length of time it took. The only issue with the electric sander is the difficulty of getting in the creases. But it is fully up to you how you want to start!

[@JJ-pm4jc]

Typical young person today, doesn’t know how to say excuse me but would rather just stand there and wait awkwardly.

That’s what you got out from watching the video 🤦‍♀️💀

@@leilanigutierrez4591 yeah it’s pathetic

[@MAGAMAN]

You seriously have no clue what you are doing.

Practice makes perfect.... Gotta start somewhere:) I think they turned out good.

Yet she still tried for the first time and it looks great!

She had an idea and she tackled the project and got the results she wanted. This project was a success.
