I may be in the wrong group to be asking this - but I'll give it a try.


I have a really nice bedroom dresser that has an almond colored lacquer
finish. I would like to refinish and paint the dresser white.

Has anyone stripped down lacquer-finished furniture? Is it no
different than refinishing any other furniture piece? The reason I am
concerned is because the lacquer looks very thick and practically
indestructible. I hate to get started without having a general idea of
what I'm getting into.

Any warnings or suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
Flats
