Redo a Chair
Have you discovered the magic of oven cleaner? The irony is I can’t think of the last time I used it for its intended purpose. No matter. Oven cleaner takes off old stain. Magically.
This chair was okay. But the stain color was tired. Time for a refresh!
I used a tub to place the chair in while spraying it with oven cleaner and a hose. There is a drain in the ground next to the tub that makes it easy for these types of projects.
Directions:
- Clean the chair.
- Find an outdoor or well ventilated space.
- Use gloves, a scrub-brush, oven cleaner, and a hose to remove the stain.
- Make sure to have a way to dispose of the dirty water.
- Repeat step 3 if needed.
- Allow to dry.
- Sand lightly.
- Finish with wax or a combination of milk paint followed by wax.
