Why live

This isn't another online course.

It's five days inside a professional refinishing shop. You see the actual process, tools and materials I use every day — not a generic DIY tutorial.

Live, not prerecorded

Every session is taught live from the shop floor. Up to 90 minutes a day — never stretched just to fill time.

Real damage, real repairs

Actual furniture with actual problems. You'll watch the whole thing: damage → diagnosis → repair → result.

Your questions, answered

Live Q&A at the end of every session. Bring the piece you're stuck on.

The 5-day lineup

The whole process. Start to finish.

Day 1

Stripping

Get the old finish off without destroying the piece.

Tools & materials you'll need · PPE & safe handling · Benco B-4 gel vs. B-7 liquid — how and when to use each · Brushes, scrapers & tools · Flat surfaces → curves → carvings & ornate details · Washing & cleanup so it's truly ready to sand

Day 2

Sanding + Surface Prep

Remove the damage without sanding away what you're saving.

Sanders & tools · The grits I actually use — and why · Where to start · Flat & contoured surfaces · SurfPrep demo · Hand sanding · Ironing out dents: dos & don'ts · Epoxy vs. traditional wood filler · Why more aggressive isn't faster · What properly prepped wood looks & feels like

Day 3

Repair Day

Save pieces other people would give up on.

Veneer bubbles & loose veneer · Small patches & cutting replacement veneer · Replacing larger veneer sections · Edge banding · Epoxy repairs · Glue selection & application · Loose joints & chair-frame glue-ups

Day 4

The Flawless Finish

What separates "okay" from ready for a professional finish.

My multi-step final sanding method · Watch stain go wrong on poorly prepped wood — blotching, scratches, uneven color — and why it happens · Choosing your topcoat: poly, lacquer, shellac or varnish · Live demo of the Mohawk lacquer system I use professionally

Day 5

Touch-Up + Toning

Make the repair disappear.

My full touch-up kit: Blendal powders & sticks, stain pens, Mohawk aerosol toners · What each one does — and when NOT to use it · Color matching, blending & toning on real repairs · Hiding sanded-through veneer

Up to 90 minutes every day. Live Q&A every session.

Meet your coach

20 years of refinishing mistakes. You don't have to make them.

I refinish furniture every single day for real customers. I started posting five years ago — not for likes, but because too many people were learning this craft the wrong way. Now I'm teaching everything I know.
