Easy Furniture Refinishing. One Day Furniture Makeover.

What happens here

Begin the surface preparation by thoroughly vacuuming the furniture piece, in this case, a cubby shelf, to remove loose dust and debris. Next, use the Ekasand 3x4 sander with a HEPA vacuum attachment to sand the surfaces. The presenter indicates that some areas may require Bondo glazing putty for filling imperfections such as nail holes, but this particular piece does not show extensive Bondo application in this clip.

Goal: Clean and sand the furniture surface, addressing initial imperfections.
