Did you try another application of the stripper? If not try another. Ron ----- Original Message ----- From: Ralph Supernaw To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, August 13, 2008 3:11 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Stripping stane
Hi, My mom has some doors she would like to have stripped and refinished. We tried one door this weekend to see how things would go. What we found was that the paint came off pretty easily but the original stain that had been painted over didn't come off so easily. I basically had to sand off the surface of the door to get to wood that wasn't stained. That leaves me with a couple questions: 1. Is there a way to more easily remove the stain? Several of the doors she wants done are French doors and so would be very hard to sand without damaging the door. 2. We are refinishing with stain that is very close to the color of the original stone. How difficult would it be to simply restain over the old stone? Thanks for your help.
