Hi
We have just had a series of pine freestanding kitchen cabinets and worktops given to us by a neighbour. He thinks it is treated with Danish oil and wax mixture? The wood is quite dark and we would like to do something to the existing finish to make it lighter.
Can we remove the existing finish by caustic bath or is this too extreme?
Can we remove the existing finish by just sanding back and reoiling worktops and possibly painting the cabinets and cupboards in a pale contrasting colour.
Does anybody have a good reference to a 'How to treat pine worktops' website page with clear steps and instructions.
The sink worktop is quite discoloured black by water. any ideas how to deal with this or just easier to flip worktop over and start again with underside?
Thanks
