Andy is a furniture refinisher who runs the YouTube channel Modern Makeovers. He shows us how he restores a 1920s dresser that is peeling. This includes removing the veneer, sanding the whole piece, scrubbing off the old stain, applying new veneer, and repairing the handles.

How A Peeling 1920s Dresser Is Restored | Refurbished | Insider

The stain they used on top is such an ugly color 😬
furniture andy
Not a fan of the black handles
Top stain meh
Andy's channel is very entertaining and he really knows what he is doing
Thank you for the feature, Insider! 🙂
I’m not surprised there’s stripping in Barewood. This place is the wildest on the East Coast.
He did an amazing job!
I have my Mema’s cedar chest from years ago that has water damage on the top veneer . Can’t find anyone to fix it
Well, sometimes you have to stop and think.. Restoration stands for restoring, not remaking.
Great job, you saved that dresser's life!
The narration completely ruins the video. Every time I wanted to hear the natural sounds of the tools, sanding, scraping, etc, the voice over comes in to add nothing of value to the video.
I seen this on his actual channel just last week
I am feeling very relaxed and relieved after watching your masterpiece, and I can sleep so much better! 😌😍
His Name is Andy!
Should’ve kept that drawing tho
Wood never dies…
Cool 😀
Dear narrator, thank you for telling us what we can already see and what's so obvious and you do not have to be saying at all.
Why is this so satisfying
The fact that this dresser is near 100 years old and in pretty good condition just amazes me.

Andy ……..
Andy Andy ….. Andy Andy

I always thought that veneer was a poor quality product.
Nice work! We love a good restoration! 👊
How many times does she want to say Andy…
It came out stunning!
I love 1920s
That gray stain is hideous.
I wonder what this guys name is?
does it really need all this dialog
this is pro work no question. BUT sorry for my honest opinion: you have to see that this furniture is old, not new. Now it looks like fresh from the factory – or even worse: from IKEA. target completely missed. I also restore old cars, especially the interior of cars. Here the goal is always: Original Condition, and not according to whim. This furniture doesn't look like 100 years old. it`s like brandnew. history furniture like this always loses its soul if you don't do it the right way. you can compare it easily by stopping the video at 05:12 – then compare it.
Nice job, but I think it's more repairing than restoring
