Campaigning Pays Off

I found this campaign piece at The Salvation Army the other day for $27 and brought her home. I was thinking what can I do with you little boo boo. She is missing a corner plate, but I think I can find one that will fit it, so no biggie. Other than that she really is in pretty good shape.

    So in comes my friend Klean Strip Paint Stripper, and Klean Strip After Wash

The after was clean, and beautiful. The whole layer of stain came right off and left me with this lighter shade. To be honest, I thought about doing the whole piece over with the stripper, but it would have been to much work. Maybe another time.

Stay Tuned to see the results…

Sorry.
