Hello,
I am new here and very new to woodwork! An enthusiastic amateur! I have a passion for Mid Century modern furniture and design and thought I might try my hand at 'up-cycling' a few cheap pieces I have picked up.
So my question today is about a little sideboard that I'm working on. I has a thick laminate on the top and sides, that I would say is probably not original(??). I want to paint these areas and Im wondering if Im better off trying to remove it and paint straight onto the wood below (could it be chipboard?) or prime and paint the laminate??
Im also very happy to receive any other advice about this project! Im still not sure exactly what to do with the doors, it looks like veneer, but as im sanding it Im thinking I may just be able to oil them and leave them unpainted? Also unsure if I should stain and/or varnish?? :?:U:B
Thanks!!
