hello,
I have old door frames, skirtings etc with that high gloss finish which we want rid of.
There must be about 50 years of paint on these and its winding me up. I have been sanding all day but there are patches all over the place where the gloss is obviously in dips, crevices and grains of the wood work. Most moldings are quite fancy which does not help.
Do you have to remove every bit of the shine to get a decent key to hep any new stuff adhere??
In some areas its gone back to bare wood which I will have to deal with.
thanks
