Hello All,
I'm new to the site. I also got here because I have a problem and would appreciate your feedback. I am contracting a kitchen remodel (my own) and in the process subbed out the re-finishing of some high quality cabinetry. I found a furniture re-finisher in town sent a sample for them to do and was pleased. They took the time and did a good job of sanding and applyiong the new finsh.
I took the entire job to them and when it arrived, the island unit which has large surfaces looked blotchy so I had them take it back. I found out the stain was sprayer applied which was disappointing. Is this the normal? I always hand apply stain for my projects and have had excellent results.
The second problem which is more troubling is that they dip stripped my raised panel oak doors. When I got them back I found they have things rolling around when turned. Did some research found out they are space balls which keep the raised panel centered in the stiles and crosses and prevent panel rattle when the door is closed.
Question-are the doors now ruined ? Is there any restoration of this panel cushioning?
Thanks for your feedback!
