Houston Furniture refinishing By Lazo's

Discover exceptional antique furniture restoration at Lazo's caning & wicker in Houston, TX. Lazo's specializes in transforming furniture through expert restoration services.

Furniture refinishing consists of many steps and is a time consuming process. Wood finishing includes removing the original finish using chemical strippers, sanding blocks, correct grits of sandpaper, labor and time. The wood grain for a piece of furniture comes back to life. People apply wood stains to add color and enhance the appearance.

Lastly, we apply lacquer, varnish, or polyurethane to protect the wood finish and color of the furniture.

Lazo's primarily uses lacquer applied via spray for its durability and clear coat. Lacquer has a gloss finish that is sleek and resistant to damage. Great for indoor items such as wood tables, chairs, sofas, dressers, etc.

Shellac is a safe natural product that, once dried and in solid form, adds a protective layer to furniture. Lazo's often uses shellac on rush bottoms to protect from moisture. Heat can damage shellac, which is a negative feature.

Polyurethane is plastic in liquid form either oil based or water based. Oil based polyurethane is more resistant to heat and provides richness to the grain of the wood. Water based polyurethane is low toxicity and dries faster. It also protects the wood from scratches, water damage, stains and chemicals.

Varnish is a finishing product that waterproofs the wood, protects from scratches and moisture. It protects wood from UV rays and makes it look even more beautiful by enhancing its natural colors and grains. Varnish is popular for outdoors primarily used near water docks and wood boats.

Other finishes are epoxy resin used for surfaces that see lots of use. People use boiled linseed oil for items such as cutting boards and wooden cooking utensils.
