Sanded oak table with water stain before

You can use oxalic acid when trying to remove discoloration or water damaged spots. The entire surface needs to be treated and then neutralized with a clean water wash.

Mix 4 oz. per quart of warm water. Wipe the entire surface down with the mixture and allow to dry completely. Rinse table with a clean damp rag. Finish sand with 180 grit followed by the final sanding schedule below. Make sure to wear a  dust mask when sanding wood treated with oxalic acid - the dust can irate the nose. 

It's Woodworking Wednesday!

Lisa from General Finishes created this lovely Trumeau Mirror with Efex mouldings and General Finishes products.  Trumeau mirrors are wall mirrors that were originally manufactured in France in the 18th century.

Diane from The Paint Factory took a vintage photo of downtown Portland Oregon and transfered the image to this table top.

Today, we want to share this makeover of a dresser up-cycled with General Finishes. Stacey of Embracing Change decided to ditch her idea of painting the project white.

This table would be the perfect addition to any home.
