I recently had a teak dining room table and chairs refinished. The result, for the table at least, was....disappointing.
Both the finish and color of the top are uneven. I am reluctant to have it redone, because each new treatment will take away more wood than I care to lose (the set is forty years old). Is it possible to find a furniture polish which contains an abrasive, so that, with time, things will even out somewhat, and I will be left with a table top that merely looks gently aged? I have the time and I am happy enough if the finish is satin, rather than high gloss, since the nature of the wood will then become more evident. Googling seems to indicate that I can have one or the other: either an abrasive which will take the surface back to the wood, or a wax polish which will just make things shinier, neither of which outcome is desirable. Has anyone a solution? |
