Turned out gorgeous! Looks so much better in black and the gold hardware makes it pop! Beautiful job!

[@fernunrau7315]

That is such a gorgeous piece. Would look pretty as an entertainment center

[@carriebtc]

Wow, it seems like a lot of effort to strip paint off an old piece of furniture just to end up with another painted piece. I don’t quite understand the appeal. However, I appreciate the valuable tips on using a heat gun for paint removal. Have a great day! Cheers!

[@chesterossa]

I just have to say, I really appreciate your honesty and approach. Way to be awesome

[@barbarafling3790]

Loved the heat gun method. Better than a messy stripper.

[@kathleenchang9206]

Gorgeous piece. Glad to see you back. Wish we could see your beautiful smile.

[@maryfinkner5444]

That is really pretty!!! Silver would look nice too!!

[@tequeena]

😍 very nice! I like the gold but silver would have looked good too. I was recommending that sander with the foam pad for detail just the other day, based on your videos, it really does seem good for keeping the finer details that are easily obliterated by other sanders 👍🙌

[@nattydodds]

I’m so happy you did black and coated in semi-gloss. Turned out very stunning as less is more….not so much gold. Greetings from 🇨🇦.

[@onlythetruth2063]

Beautiful

[@pearlllg]

Semi-gloss seems like a bold choice of finish! Are glossy finishes back in style? I kinda secretly hope so! Beautiful work!! It was very satisfying watching the paint pull off. Kinda makes me think about how we are living in a plastic bubble of paint in our homes! Yikes!

[@cheriebrittin7627]

Gold is beautiful with the gun metal black. Great job!

[@nancyanneberg403]

Love it now. Gutsy to turn around and redo. Windering how silver hardware would look and yet if you like that gold..... Go for it. Thank you.

[@Ms7of8]

Looks beautiful. I wouldn't change a thing. Well done -- as always.

[@FurnitureFlippa]

Awesome another shabby video! Welcome back. I haven't tried stripping paint with a heat gun yet, looks like I need to give it a go! The black looks great and should sell quick! Nice work

[@MissLady-pq4hc]

Excellent video, i have refinished many pieces , however with this method. Thank you so much , i am learning so much watching this video. You are very good at explaining the process. Wonderful.⭐️⭐️❤️

[@MichCoccaBene]

I love the black with gold!

[@LisaKessler-o1q]

Absolutely beautiful!

[@trudyeby464]

Santa is bringing me a heat gun this year. So glad to have found this helpful video. I like it better now with less bling. Rub n Buff has a black metallic wax that is cool on black.

[@kaycox5555]

Wow - so helpful to watch you go through all the different techniques. Really helpful. And...you made it quite beautiful too! Well, well done!

[@Bob-mk4cd]

You’re right about the gunmetal black. I really liked the blue but….

[@dawncastro1697]

I remember that dresser! I think it looks so good now! I love the gold hardware!

[@susanwallace6838]

Ever try putting a splash of paint in your top coat to prevent the whitening. Looks great. When i use silver on black, it never sells. Gold is a good choice. Brass would look good too..

[@arjnsdca]

I’m glad you’re bad, I’ve missed your videos.

[@brendaowens2466]

It’s lovely. Good job sir.

[@ellenwitko3734]

Looks great with the new color. I always enjoy your videos!

[@onetimearound1275]

It looks great! I really like the gold handles! 👍👍

[@michaelpowell1123]

So I wanted to take a minute and make a quick comment Dixie Bells gold wax is actually an oil based product so you have to apply it on top of any poly you put on the piece. If you drop the poly on top because it’s water based it’s going to destroy that wax eventually.

[@gailegormley5744]

Beautiful!

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Thank you!

[@karen0karen]

Thank you! I always love your videos. Nice to see a fresh one.

[@charlianderson6613]

Perfect! Great job.

[@heatherh3099]

I think just removing all of the gold wax detail made it a lot better. The before made me feel like it was a piece from Beauty and the Beast. The black is nice improvement and classic. But even the blue may have looked better without all of the gold accents.

[@veronicahartman1751]

Wow, that’s a French Provincial piece; right. Love love

[@tkine97]

Lovely piece. Your paint job looks awesome. I wonder if the silver or bushed nickel would complement the gunmetal gray more. Hope it sells fast

[@filomenamascolo6774]

I like the new color better. I actually liked the cloudy color when you put the final top coat on too. If you have a simple dresser you should try to make color it with a cloudy design and see how it looks. I don’t know how you would achieve that look but I would be interested in learning if you can figure it out. ❤😊

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

It's might work if some white paint was added to the poly. Might be interesting to try sometime

[@diannaperry8116]

Beautiful. ❤

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Thank you! 😊

[@karenbickford8345]

Gorgeous!

[@dianah.2684]

Great job!!

[@debraneria4242]

good to see you Back..dresser came out gorgeous..the handles are Absolutely beautiful in gold ...I think how you did the bottom scroll detail in gold on last finish it was Just Too much gold and details ..now the detail on bottom is black and subtle which actually brings the handles to pop and be the focal stunner ...love love the black and gold handles. .happy belated turkey day to you and your family ❤

[@denisemastrostefano277]

Beautiful! I would of went with silver but it looks great.

[@astrik5236]

Beautiful 😊🌸

[@valerieemmons9107]

I love the new color, but I would prefer a silver or brushed nickel hardware. A more modern design. Great job though!

[@kiddozoo]

Happy to see an new video! Thanks for sharing a different technique. Gorgeous piece!

[@ieda8259]

Olá! Que bom que vc voltou!😊❤

[@monicagonzalez5742]

I think silver would look nice however; it’s a beautiful piece.♥️

[@leewood729]

As a general rule, I'm not a big fan of painted furniture, although (like this one) some are quite lovely painted. Was the wood underneath just not very nice to begin with?

[@altawarren7334]

It looks beautiful!❤

[@ifga16]

Painting wood only spoils the piece.You had a very good chance to apply stain and color the grain to make it stand out. The work is well done but definitely not my idea of any furniture fancier than a tool chest or stool.

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

You're welcome to have your own opinion. Thanks for watching!

[@jeannedorsey8122]

That must have been latex paint you initially painted the dresser with…?

[@my_flippin_journey]

*Welcome Back* ...

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Thanks!

[@bakoresident6302]

Just found you, so I subscribed. Nice re do. The new color is a great choice. I watch tons of furniture videos but have never seen that sprayer. Please explain. 😂

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Welcome to my channel. Check out some of my other videos. The Graco Magnum X5 is my go to sprayer and I use it in a lot of videos. Its a bit overpowered for most people into furniture but I used to do a ton of projects so it worked for me.

[@rainrabbit9209]

Yay! heat gun

[@jguifarro2826]

Beautiful, your gut is right silver is better

[@tinaranson6172]

Silver better but the look is great as is.
