INCREDIBLE restoration of Hulk dresser

[@danjoe22]

don't get the gray paint but the rest is gorgeous. Great job overall.

[@mdeysenroth]

I think it's just because all of the old green paint didn't come out. I get your point though. It looks like primer, so another color might have been better.

[@agcons]

I don't like the grey paint either, but I can see why he did it. Sanding all the green out would have removed far too much material, and I'm not sure even bleaching would have worked. The stained parts are beautiful.

[@Ripplesinthewaters]

Maybe a navy would look good here. I love the wood!

[@Restomaniac]

Thank you :)

[@Restomaniac]

On the sides, the green paint has completely penetrated the first layer of plywood. It was impossible to get rid of the paint except with very hard sanding. Actually, I thought I bought matte khaki green acrylic paint, but it turned out to be the usual grey. I think it would be nice if I could find someone who could draw beautiful patterns on it :)

[@IlMakerstauratore]

you have given dignity back to this chest of drawers. Congratulations on the result

[@Restomaniac]

Thank you so much Luca, it's great to receive compliments from you 😀🙏

[@karenkovack9962]

A navy paint over the gray would look good with the stain color. Easy fix. The wood part looks great.

Если уж не получилось полностью очистить бока и верх от зеленого оттенка, я бы замаскировала его более гармоничной светло-коричневой краской, чтоб гармонировала с прекрасным рисунком дерева. Серый все испортил, он как будто кислород перекрыл прекрасному началу фасада.

I Think Calling It a "Hulk" Dresser was Correct. It Sure Made Me a little Angry Looking at It. I Also Got some "Green Eggs and Ham" vibes When You were Scraping the Paint off! Amazing Work! Painting was a Great Solution for the Piece. I Had a Feeling that Green Paint was going to Fight back! Beauty! Your Cat steals the Show!😸😸😼

[@Restomaniac]

Thank you very much. I wish I had some painting skills. I will find someone to draw nice patterns on the sides :)

[@ruppertale3319]

Excellent work! I think it's easier to remove the knobs before you strip the old paint or finish off the drawers. You can either put tape on the inside of the drawer front or just reverse the knobs so they are inside and only the head of the screw is on the side you are stripping.

[@Restomaniac]

Thank you :)

Wonderful job on this restoration, my friend! 👍 I can't believe that someone spray painted the dresser such an awful shade of green. But, I was totally amazed at what you did with the piece. The fact that you knew what you could save and refinished those parts beautifully... but, what you couldn't save you painted. Thanks, Ismail

[@Restomaniac]

Thank you very much dear Annie :) Yes you are right, the green paint had completely penetrated the first layer of plywood.

[@Restomaniac]

Thank you very much. This is the first time I encounter such a stubborn paint. And of course it's completely ingrained into the first layer of plywood on the sides.

[@Mountain-Momma]

Green paint has to be the worst color to try to remove from wood. Kudos to you for this piece, looks beautiful!

[@annettemalaski1967]

I love that shade of green. Would like to have seen this dresser freshly painted. Can't tell what wood that is. This came out looking good! I felt the green would not entirely sand out or strip clean. The grey looks great against the natural wood tone!

[@Restomaniac]

Thanks. Actually yes, it was a nice shade of green. But trying to remove the paint was very difficult.

[@CrabOfDoom]

To have colored the insides of the body and drawers was some kind of dedication, and yet for all that dedication, it was such a haphazard job. I've never seen a paint-like substance crinkle up like cellophane before, and still be obviously stubborn at coming off. Incredible, indeed. It might've looked nice with an even coat of a transparent more-'plant'-less-'kelly' green stain, but whatever was used was not that. Looks so much better, back to natural.

[@Restomaniac]

I completely agree with you. Just getting rid of that paint makes you feel relieved :)

​@@TheSilentRestorator Memnun oldum Mustafa 😊 Bidon haberine çok sevindim. Şimdilik iki şey söyleyeceğim: Birincisi, kanalın odağı net olmalı, ya camping ya da restorasyon. İkisi bir arada denemeleri genelde başarısız oluyor. Kanalın tanıtım videosu şu anda camping gibi görünüyor. İkincisi ise, restorasyon videolarını sosyal medyadan paylaşmak lazım. İzlenmeyi biraz daha arttıracak küçük şeyler yani. İzlenmeler arttıkça, insanların izlediklerini paylaşma olasılığı da artıyor. Arkadaşlarına da WhatsApp'tan yollayıp, biraz darlayabilirsin 😊 Bir ek yapayım: Videoların küçük resimlerine çok ama çok dikkat et. KZbin'daki en önemli konu budur. İzleyicinin tıklama kararı rn başta buna bağlı. Acaba önceki/sonraki fotoğrafları artık eskisi gibi popüler mi?

My brother and I have been building/refurbing furniture for years and we are getting ready to open a furniture business but we are going to specialize in 3/4 furniture that is used for Tiny houses, pull behind RV's/Campers and small apartments, that whole genre is a HUGE market because more and more people are going tiny and are getting back into RV/Camper family vacations and there is very little retail outlet for it b4cause more often than not it has to serve more than 1 purpose and we want to be that outlets for that. For instance this dresser, take the top drawer out put a piece of plywood on the bottom and drill a hole in the center with a hole saw bit in the back and you have and entertainment center for a tiny house/apartment, add some I hooks to the side and you have an and a pots and pans rack for a Camper/RV that you can also use to store food in.
