Step 6: Completely remove existing paint stains or end up in heavily abrasive areas
Now that you know where you sit when it comes to what you want to show through antique finishes and what you don’t, you will begin to remove all existing paint finishes or residual stains—places with a lot of wear and tear altogether. For example, you’ll look at high points, edges, and heavily touched or used areas.
You have to go to the wood’s rough surface because the stain is darker than you would be using to protect the area. For this step, you do not need to use a higher feed block. You can keep using 150-grit as this will make the process a bit faster as you have this grinder up and running to flow antique wood vibe into your room.
