Sanding table after stripping finish

[@LittleFrenchyindaCity]

Good tip on the max sandpaper grit! I'm about to start sanding my first piece and that was excellent information to have before starting. Thank you!

Dude you are awesome, I’m sure it’s a pain to make these videos, really like the information and straight to the point facts, based on your experience. Really hope you keep posting them

[@pamelasertich9850]

I love your video. If I am an amateur, which I am, what kind of sander do you recommend for me to sand an occasional piece of furniture? Thank you so much.

Day 2, same shirt.. best man ever! "Don't be a Dario' hahah!

[@peggyhoffer3714]

help. i followed another diy instructions and sanded an old woode chair up to 320 grit. it now makes sense whats happened. i think i [ushed the sand down into the pores of the wood how do i undo this? thanks so much for your videos! very instructive without a bunch of "trendy" effects and music im gonna subscriobe right after im done writing this thanks again

[@darr1964]

It all depends on what type of stain you used. With oil based stain you can use mineral spirits and a rag to wipe as much of it off, let dry and sand with 120 grit. With water based stain you can try to sand it all off. Most stains (with the exception of a dye stain) sit on the surface of the wood and do not get absorbed Into the grain.

Hi, love your videos. My question is, what about the edges of the table? You didn't show us that. I have the same vacuum setup. Its loud but does the trick

[@bertharuiz1225]

I see Montoya DoD it w/ a hand held sander but best ans from M.

[@bonniecall4581]

Please - how do you sand the edge bare?

[@ccr5078]

Hi. Love your videos. Hope you can help. I stripped stain off a table top to raw wood. I sanded to a 400 grit and then learned it was too much so went back and finished with 150 grit. I applied wood conditioner ( GF), then applied GF oil based gel stain. 24 hrs later I see that there is scratching showing through and the surface is rough, not horribly but enough to make me wonder what happens when I apply arm r seal. There is one coat of stain in the right color and no need to add another coart. What do you suggest I do now?? Will the arm r seal smooth out the surface or should I sand and reapply the stain? If so, can a light hand sanding with 400 grit do it?? Do I have to remove all the original stain I just applied? Thanks for help!!!!!

How do you sand the beveled edge of the table?

[@darr1964]

I hand sand with a foam sanding sponge.

[@bonniecall4581]

Help! I used to mild of stripper - now very old solid oak table is sanded bare in some places but stubborn top coat in low spots and especially the beveled edge. Now what??? Help me - you are the refinishing wizard!

[@johnvalenti2094]

Can you tell me what is the grit of the sanding pad you are using when you block sand at the end?

[@darr1964]

I used 150 grit

[@achebe171]

How much do you charge for a job like that? I ask because I have been told I don't charge enough

[@debbz575]

How would you deal with gouges in the wood

[@darr1964]

Most tablets are a veneer on top of an MDF, plywood or wood substrate, so be careful when sanding so you don't break through the substrate. If you can't sand it out it's best to just leave it.

[@notdelilah1237]

What do you do if you leave stripper on to long? It’s sticky and pretty dry. What should I do?

[@pronerider5626]

Where is the finishing video?

[@daylelambrecht7989]

You may have already found it by now, but if not look at his videos, it is about 10 videos later. Staining with Java Gel, I think is the title.

[@cannarris]

Looks like solidwood instead of veneer.

[@1959Berre]

That is some nice oak.
