Wood preparation

To prepare a piece of furniture to receive a painting, or just change the varnish, there are a few steps to be taken: The preparation of wood has several techniques, first there are wax removal techniques (wash the furniture with a mop to remove the wax) and varnishes (sanding by hand or with a sanding machine). I will teach you how to differentiate varnish from wax and how to remove it. Techniques for smoothing wood, in this case, are when the wood is rough, with texture, and we want to flatten the wood using manual sandpaper or a sanding machine. At the end, explain when to apply the paint directly on the wood or if you have to apply a primer before painting, as there are several painting techniques.
