Millhouse

Hello,

I need someone who can collect a table from me, strip off the existing wax, give it a good sanding, and repolish it (or better still lacquer it).

Does anyone know someone who could so this? It's a very heavy and large table top and not something that can be easily transported by one person.

All jokes about polishing my wood gratefully received, as well as actual advice. Milkybar kid, please stay off this thread, I'm referring to bee-wax polish, not the Polish that you pay 500dh for a night with.


Cheers, S

Is it a new table you've bought?

Millhouse

nope, it's about 30 years old.

I meant, how long have you had it?

Millhouse

2 years. It was given to me. It was in a very lived in condition when I got it.

I've stripped it and waxed it before, but wax is hard to look after - I want it varnished this time and I can't be bothered to do that job myself.

I've messaged you mate.

Oh dear, I need help. I thought this was a euphemism that I hadn't come across before

When was the last time you had your carpet cleaned?

Iggs, I've followed one of the links on here and I think they will be able to help you open your girlfriend's drawers. They fix all sorts of stuff.

I'll mention that to her when she's stop being a psycho

Thanks everyone. A man came today to take it away.

800dh (from 1200) to sand and spray with a two coat hardener/lacquer. Table is 3m x 1m. I thought that was OK. Let's see what mess he makes of on Thursday.

Table done. They did an amazing job and way better than I had possibly expected.
