| refinish Bruno Mathsson Maria table | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | maxbernat | General discussion | |
| Have an opportunity to buy a Maria table for under $200. Finish is terrible, flaky. Some dings in the veneer on the corners. Any thoughts on the cost for refinishing a table like this? Perfect for our dining room. | |||||
| I have one. I love it and | 1 Relevance | 12 years ago | DallasGraduate | General discussion | |
| I have one. I love it and hate it at the same time. I dont treat it like a museum piece, but I have to be rude to 200+ lbs people that flop into it and push back into the seat. My advice would be to buy through a dealer on the authorized wholesale side (on HM website). I did not pay retail prices and am not apart of the trade. However, dont buy if you plan to move or move often. Mine has several dings from moving. I can't say that I would buy it again when you can generally find a plycraft version for less than the tax on a HM one. | |||||
| Dear Aunt Mark, | 1 Relevance | 12 years ago | Spanky | General discussion | |
| Dear Aunt Mark, I am no expert but I know that dings in tempered glass windshields can be repaired with some kind of resin stuff. Below are google images of this. It looks like the device they use would not work well on the edge of the glass but maybe there is some other way to apply it and shape it, I dunno. (If you scroll down far enough, there is a photo of a sign that says chips are $20 to fix.) https://www.google.com/search?q=repaired+chip+in+windshield&rlz=1C5CHFA_... PS, Gorilla Glue foams up and the bubbles in it will make the repair more visible ... | |||||

| Hi Ian Loose veneer is fixed with wood glue and clamped pressure. Sometimes warping or dents and dings can be repaired with moisture and heat. Google it you'll see. | |||||

| 4 moller 71s Picked those up today for a reasonable price, however they are a bit grimy after years of use, also a few dings and liifting veneer. Frames are solid buy seats need to be re woven. Any ideas on cleaning up the teak? | |||||

| ... 1975 and the seats look as NEW. My question is what finish do they use at the manufacture as there were a few dings in the back of one top rung which I thought I could easily sand out and refinish. NOT SO, as I started too sand the area went darker and darker till parts were almost black. ANY SUGGESTIONS or help. I am afraid to try any others and I have made, as well as refinished, lots of teak over the years and never seen anything go so dark Thanks Dave in Western Canada | |||||

| ... to that table. I had never seen any since until I saw this American Express ad with Tina Fey. Of course her's was minus all the dings, scratches, and hammer marks that decorated my old tables. For a bit of nostalgia I would love to find tables like these again for myself and possibly another for my father. I would use mine as Ms. Fey does in the ad. Has anyone run across something like these? I have not had any luck searching many word combinations online. Thanks. JW | |||||
| My first Herman Miller Purchase | 1 Relevance | 17 years ago | tchp | General discussion | |
| I got this set of four side shells with stacking bases for $150 off of Craigslist. The chairs are in nice shape, glossy with no cracks, dings. I will need to find replacement feet for all four though. Three have embossed HM logos and paper tags, and one has just a paper HM tag with no other logo on the shell, and is also just ever so slightly a different color than the other three, but it will not bother me, since it is hardly noticeable. They are kind of a tan color. I was wondering if the one with no logo might be early, from the 50's? | |||||
| Knoll Tulip Chair Maintenance Question | 1 Relevance | 18 years ago | Mamer | General discussion | |
| Hey guys, I recently obtained an older tulip chair for $200 off Craigslist. I think the price was decent given the condition given that the base has no chips or dings, the fiberglass has no gouges, and everything cleaned up quite nicely w/ a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and some Bar Keeper's Friend. My one gripe is that the swivel mechanism could be a bit smoother. It sounds like it just needs a cleaning and some WD-40 but I'm really just not sure what's involved with dismantling the chair to address this. Has anyone here had any experience with doing maintenance ... | |||||

| ... legs and the cabinets and be left with just the desk top? If that's the case, and you want to refinish, I'd suggest taking it apart and then stripping the top. Sand only to remove scratches, dings, and other things you can't steam our or repair another way. If you're new to this process, I'd personally suggest that you get some Citristrip and some cellophane or thin, plastic wrap, like a cut up trash bag. Slather the piece in the Citristrip with a brush and then wrap it in plastic. Try to make sure no air can touch it. Leave it like that for several hours. ... | |||||

| If you do India ink, | 1 Relevance | 13 years ago | Spanky | General discussion | |
| If you do India ink, you have to strip all of the existing finish off. India ink won't adhere to anything other than bare wood. Lacquer is pretty easy to strip with lacquer thinner or acetone but it's tedious because the stuff evaporates so fast. It does have a nicer look than paint, though, and it's easy to touch up if you get any little dings. | |||||

The top has some dark spots on it and some small dings so I wasn't sure if I could lightly sand all over and re-oil or if to just leave it just the way it is. thankgs again for all of your expertise! | |||||

| ... or tick rags or something between the clamp jaws and the chair so you don't leave clamp dings. If it squeezes back together, you could proceed to glue it and clamp it per great white's very good instructions, BUT, it would be a much stronger joint to completely break it apart, then re-glue. If you don't completely break it apart there will be debris and bent splinters in the joint, which will make a wider, weaker glue line, and you won't be able to get glue in quite a lot of the root of the crack. If it doesn't squeeze back together, you have a whole dif ... | |||||
