Asked for some advice on another post re whether to wax oil or stain some stripped doors! Well we took a punt and got some waxed to see the outcome abs they’ve come back really dark 😣 Any tips to lighten? Or does anyone know if we can paint over them? It’s a shame as the grain is lovely! Thank you
Get wax remover and steel wool and you should be able to remove most of it. I did a hall landing and stairs a few years ago and it was too dark and used this technique to knock it back. Just remember that you need to take up the ‘dissolved’ wax as you go or it will simply redeposit on the wood.
