hi everyone,
anyone can advice on this...my misses just bought a oldish pine sideboard.there is a nice texture on a wood,its not flat and smooth,its more like 3d effect where the knots and harder fibred parts popping out over the softer part of wood.any idea how this can be done?i assume they used some kind of chemicals to soften the softer fibres and the wash them off or remove them mechanically using steel wool or some kind of brush?possibly strongly concetrated caustic soda can be used,i would say...
any advice on this technique will be much appreaciated.thanks martin
