Guides

Wood finishing, explained plainly

Practical guides drawn from my day-to-day coatings work, for anyone tackling a refinishing project of their own.

Wood finishing, from a working coatings specialist

I'm a wood coatings specialist by trade, and I refinish used furniture around the Niagara Region. These guides cover the questions that come up when someone wants to refinish furniture or cabinets themselves: what to use, what to skip and what a professional job costs.

The first guide, on turning golden oak cabinets into a modern look, includes what a professional refinish costs, so you can weigh it against doing the work yourself.
