Varnishing doors...

mvpr · 2006-09-12 14:09:27

Hello everybody... Looking to re-varnish the doors in my apartment. Do i need to sand all the old varnish off first, or just give it a rough sand and then re-varnish? I wana get it back looking as good as original. Any advice would be much appreciated...

can u post a pic or 2, it depends on the amount of wear and tear,

If the varnish has worn off in spots and u just revarnish u will see the "spots" so post a few pics.

If they are flush doors sanding is easier than if panel doors

what ever u do it would not be a rough sand, it would be a fine rub
