I am refinishing a small side table that was painted many times. I thought I had sufficiently stripped and sanded the piece but when I stained it white paint specs unfortunately show (difficult to see in the picture).
Is there any way to solve this without starting over again?
I still have other parts of the table to stain. Should I seal first with diluted shellac before staining?
Lastly the wood certainly looks like oak but it is very light compared to what oak usually feels like. Could this be something different?
Thanks.
