**Sanding**: Start by sanding the surface with a coarse grit sandpaper to remove the old finish. Gradually move to finer grits to smooth it out. This helps to prepare the wood for staining or sealing. Just make sure to wipe off the dust afterward!

**Stripping**: If the old finish is tough to remove, you can use a chemical stripper. Apply it to the surface, let it sit for the recommended time, and then scrape off the old finish. Be sure to do this in a well-ventilated area and wear gloves!

**Staining**: Once you’ve got a clean surface, you can apply a wood stain to enhance the color of the wood. Use a brush or a cloth to apply it evenly, and then wipe off any excess. This can really bring out the grain and give your furniture a fresh look.
