How to revive weathered indoor furniture?

I rescued a dining Table with Four chairs from curb side and want to revive them either with oil or some colours maybe white.

Need some help from where to start as they seems to have been kept outside for long and the wood is affected by weather. The actual look was pine as you can see in one of the pictures from under the table.

Hi @shary,

Thank you for your question.

Start by sanding the table and chairs to remove the old coating, brush down the table and chairs to remove any saw dust and then apply your choice of finishing material.

You might like to have a read through How To Restore Wooden Furniture and How To Restore A Timber Table In A Few Easy Steps which will explain the process and offer guidance on materials.

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi @shary,

It's best to follow the application instructions on the can for the product you're using. Typically, if there's no mention of wiping with a cloth, then it's not necessary. Since the product has varnish in it, it's important not to touch the coating after application and let it dry undisturbed. Allow sufficient drying time before applying additional coats or handling the furniture. 

Please let me know if you have further questions.
