Hi

I have an old yeng chang, the big Thai "sofa" with the spindled gating around the sides and back.

It is a very good and large example in excellent condition. All the spindles are still there and actually all still turn.

It has gloss varnish which is not very high quality, and would strip or sand quite easily.

I would prefer to take it back to bare wood, then perhaps put a wax or emulsion type stain on it.

In fact if anyone can recommend something good which isn't a "skin" like varnish, please say so.

My main thing is the rather complicated spindles, 20 of them, around the gating would be very difficult to sand so perhaps the way to go is sandblast or strip.

Anyone have any experience here?

Can you recommend anyone/anywhere?

thanx v much

John
