AMAZING RESTORATION of a TRASHED mid century desk - ODIE’S OIL on teak

There are a couple of things I'd do differently were I to do this all over again. I skipped the oxalic acid on the dark water ring, and probably shouldn't have. In fact, I might redo that small section before I sell the piece. The other thing I'd have changed.. is that I would have replaced a rectangular section of veneer over the large hole and the area where the veneer was missing for some reason. It would have been a much better blend into the new finish than trying to use filler etc. Sadly, it wasn't an option at the moment, so it is what it is. haha. Even so... this piece is a million times better than it was and I'm happy to have kept it from ended up in the landfill! PLUS- I had this really cool teak chair in storage, JUST WAITING for another teak desk to come along. They go perfectly together!

This beat up, marked up desk was FREE on FB Marketplace. I knew right away it was a Domino Møbler piece, but it had been "modified".. the right hand set of drawers was completely removed, there were holes drilled all over the piece, and someone had used metal brackets screwed into everything to hold it together.

I knew from having worked on these desks previously that they are usually pretty sturdy, so I was happy not to have to use any of those brackets (filled all the holes) and the two right legs were supportive enough that I didn't need to re-attach their modified cross piece.
