Refinishing a Mersman Table?

Since my Mersman 8086 will not increase in value, is it safe to refinish? The top is watermarked and gummy and I will try to be faithful to the original finish.

More than likely you are right on this one. I think it would be safe to refinish this table. Before you try to strip the table with a stripper, you should test it on an area under the table first. Now, you can strip off the finish, give it a very light sanding and add the new finish tot he table. I don't see any harm in this and it can or might help to increase the value just a bit because it doesn't look so bad.

Thank you for your response. It is only the top that has problems, so I believe I will unscrew and lift it off of the rest of the table and refinish it only. The problem is matching the new stain up with old color.

I would ask a dealer if this is advisable. Some tables are worth more than others
