Have you seen the new trend of using oven cleaner to strip furniture??? Well, I got a chance to try it and here's how it went...

Old Coffee Table

One important thing is to find a piece that is solid wood...not mdf or veneer.

02

Scrub off the stain Wait at least 20 minutes and start scrubbing w/ a nylon brush and a bucket of soapy water.

03

I wasn't sure it was going to work!! After I scrubbed the table I rinsed it well and let it dry in the sun.

Repeat the Process
