VIBRANT Mid Century Modern Furniture Restoration | Thrift Store Furniture Makeover

By letter2self on March 1, 2023



I found this dresser and side table at the thrift store, and while I don’t know who the maker is of the piece, I couldn’t pass up this Kent Coffey Perspecta Broyhill Brasilia inspired design. In this video I’m going to remove all the tinted lacquer finish, fix some pretty gnarly water stains, repair veneer damage, and bring this piece back to life. Hope you enjoy!
