I've been re-finishing our Ercol table. Decided to sand it to remove old lacquer, since there were surface stains and the grain looked filled with grime.
Even after several hours of sanding, some of the more open grain areas still look like they have grime in the pores.
Just wondering if steel wool and maybe white spirits would get down into the grain.
As a final finish I have some OSMO product I'd like to use, but searching through the forum no-one seems to have used OSMO.
The sanded finish is a nice golden colour (probably remnants of the original stain), so thinking to leave as is.
