Old furniture renovation coups are living in a new home every day.

Renovation coup

Coup 1 repainting

Repainting is undoubtedly the first decoration method that people think of without changing the structure of the original furniture. Especially for wooden furniture, consumers have tired of old wooden textures for many years. If the whitewash is new, the furniture will be “young” for many years, and the colored paint will make the furniture a whole new look. Experts remind consumers that not all furniture is suitable for painting. The surface of the plate furniture often adheres to a layer of trihydroamine plate which is difficult to peel off, and the surface is painted with paint, and the adhesion is poor. In contrast, solid wood furniture is more suitable for repainting.

1. Grinding: sanding according to the rough and hard surface of the wood, and selecting the sandpaper of the same type; the original paint surface of the furniture should be polished until the original base layer of the wood is exposed;

2, brush primer: adjust the consistency of the primer according to the density of the wood, the hardwood density is high, the paint can be diluted a little, the softer wood should be thicker. When painting, it should be evenly coated along the texture of the wood. Avoid excessively thick. After it is completely dry, sand it with sandpaper until it feels smooth and no protrusions. Wipe it with a damp soft cloth several times and finally dry it.

3, brush twice the paint: to cover the first primer as the standard, and then sandpaper along the direction of the paint gently evenly polished;

Tip: In terms of paint, you should also choose the same product as the original paint on the furniture surface to prevent the chemical reaction between the old and new paints, resulting in wrinkling of the furniture surface. In addition, if the water-based wood lacquer is applied, the wood itself is easily absorbed by water and causes instability, and the problem is severe, and slight oil drum deformation occurs, and the oil paint is relatively stable.

Sitting on the hard wooden chair, you can also use the fabric to carry out the "soft bag."

Renovation tips

Furniture renovation pays attention to price

The reporter learned that renovation can make the furniture look new, but need to consider the price. If the wooden furniture is good in raw materials and good in shape, it can be renewed and repainted with high cost performance. If the furniture is used for a long time, and the sheet is deformed, cracked or mildewed, the value of the renovation is not great.

For example, if the leather furniture is good, the wood used in the frame is good, but the leather is scratched, mildewed, etc. during the use, or the discoloration, sponge collapse and deformation caused by the age. Can be considered for renovation. In other words, high-priced, high-quality furniture is worth renovating, and vice versa.

Cloth cover and room style

Experts suggest that consumers should consider the harmonious matching with the surrounding furniture and the overall living room style when changing the cloth cover for soft furniture such as sofas.

If the room is in modern Jane style, it can be replaced with a fabric that is relatively calm in color, simple in pattern or solid in color. If the room decoration is rustic, you can use a floral pattern fabric with light colors.

If there are children under the age of the family, parents may wish to order a dark blue and gray cloth cover for the sofa to protect the surface of the soft furniture such as sofas.

Clean before refurbishing
