I think this is an issue a lot of you can relate to....you like antiques, your partner likes something more modern. That's the case with this beauty, so I'm working on making it a piece they both love!
The bar top is the first step in this massive project. The original finish did have that orange tinge that can date a piece and not always in a good way.
I took it all the way back to natural and then hit it with 2 coats of Varathane® in English Chestnut. Fitting as this client is English!
Then finished up with 5 coats (polished in between) of gloss polyurethane for durability.
I don't do a lot of staining so I was a little intimidated by this project but it came out so beautiful and I CANNOT wait to see the whole project come together.
