Distressing Wood To Make It Look Old
And Weathered
This is a quick guide to use the QuickWood steel
brushes for distressing white wood (no stain or sealer on the wood).
This process can make new wood look old. It can also be used on
installed flooring or assembled furniture to make it weathered or to
look old.
First steep in the process of making wood look
old.
First you need to figure
out what type of wood your are working with
Hard Wood
- Oak
- Maple
- Alder
- Ash
- Beech
- Birch
- Cherry
- Chestnut
- Elm
- Hickory
- Mahogany
- Red Oak
- Poplar
- Walnut
For the Hard Wood use
the steel brushes here http://www.flap-wheels.com/category-s/70.htm
You can choose a 2”
head or 4” head depending on what you are doing.
Remember the steel
heads are fairly heavy so unless you are doing flooring I recommended
you stick with the 2” head.
We will start this guide talking about Hard Wood
Distressing
First you would get a
QuickWood head with steel brushes attached and use the 1/2” pin
that the head comes with and attach it to you power drill. When you
are ready to distress
wood make sure your work piece is secure as the steel brushes
will put some torque on the wood as you start removing wood.
Find the grain of the wood
and run the steel head with with the gain over the wood surface with
very slight downward pressure, make the RPM of the head do the work
not the pressure of the head.
Test the distressing first
in one area to see how much wood is being removed. To remove more
wood stay in the same spot longer, to remove less wood move the head
faster over the surface and don't let the steel brushes dig to deep
into the wood.
The result should be the
softer wood (summer) should be removed and the harder wood (winter)
should still be in place in lines that follow the grain in the length
of your work piece.
After successful
distressing its recommended to use a P180 grip flap wheel to clean up
the wood and make it ready for stain and sealer coat.
The p180 grit flap wheel
can also be used for sealer sanding or sanding in between coats of
laquer.
Here is the link for flap
wheel heads that will fit the same QuickWood head you steel brushes
are on.
2” QuickWood head

4” QuickWood head
http://www.flap-wheels.com/category-s/26.htm
After the work piece have
been cleaned with a p180 grip flap wheel its ready for stain or
sealer to be applied.
Use the p180 flap wheel for
sanding in between coats as the flap
wheels are flexible you will see how nice the tool works to clean
up the weathered parts and flat parts and makes it ready to final
coat.
This process described here
can be used on hard wood floors, beams, furniture, cabinets and
anything else made of hard wood that you want to distress.
