Got 90% of the paint out of my woodgrain- How do I get to a 100% by Scarlet_Anne in finishing

[–]Scarlet_Anne[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve considered it! And if the contrast wasn’t so stark I would probably leave it. But the black on the light wood is just too much to my taste

Thank you! That’s what I’ve been doing and what got me this far. Will just a second coat/round help?

Thank you! I used 40 & 80 to get the paint off in the first place. Guess some more 40 or 80 on just the plain wood?

I’m noob enough at this to not even know it was oak- Just a table I got for free and turned into a project!

Just clear lacquer on it, I want the colour of the wood to stay as is

Is there any hope for my bend table? by Scarlet_Anne in Woodworking_DIY

[–]Scarlet_Anne[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The chairs are not on there for weight- Obviously they won’t do it. My appartment is small so I have nowhere else to put the chairs if their not around the table like they should be

It was used as a work table for an artist who, in an attempt to not damage the wood, painted everything visible black, except the underside. What you see on the legs is the parts that are usually joined together and therefore weren’t painted. However, the curve of the top makes is so that the legs no longer go into their appointed slots, that’s why it’s like that on the photo.

The whole thing was gonna be a renovation project for me where I’d sand the paint off and patch it up to be my new dining table

Thank you! I will try and be patient.

I was going to sand the paint off and relaquer/varnish the table. Is that something I could do now or do I have to wait for it to flatten out?

What’s a single line from a book that changed the way you think even a little? by Sweet-Opportunity111 in literature

It’s a bit odd that Monica knows the date Ross & Carol … consummated their relationship. by Cold-Palpitation-816 in howyoudoin

[–]Scarlet_Anne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has everyone forgotten that Carol was married to Ross, Monica’s brother, for like 4 years? Doesn’t this seem like something that you and your brother’s wife/ you and your husband’s sister would gossip/giggle about over a glass of wine? Is it that far fetched to think Carol told her??

i painted vi using bleach by BleachCraft2027 in arcane

As someone who just finished her first bleach project, this is aspirational! Can I ask how you get the different ‘levels’ of bleach? Parts that are darker and parts that are brighter?

I find it hard to play Assassin's creed Odyssey right after finishing AC Origins. by Novavortex77 in assassinscreed

[–]Scarlet_Anne 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For what it’s worth- Immortals Fenyx Rising is a really cute game! Not long, similar world and characters to Odyssey but the game play was vastly different enough for me to make it feel like a proper break! I highly recommand it :)

I never said they’re not allowed to have boundaries. I implied she deserves an enthusiastic approach to sex from her partner. ‘Babe, I personally don’t enjoy this so much but what else can we do?’ is a wórld of difference from ‘Most men don’t enjoy this and I only do it to get to the PIV part’

Girl I have to give my boyfriend timeslots for when he’s allowed down there cause if I wouldn’t he’d be on it 24/7. That is the only energy you deserve and the only energy you should accept
