I bought a bathroom vanity that was damaged during transport. I have now received it for free and instead of buying a new one for 5000:- I'm considering repairing the corner and spray painting the whole thing. I have removed what was crushed and now plan to build up with some form of compound that I can then sand down. I assume it’s too much missing to use fine filler? Do you have any other ideas?
Use wood filler. You won't need to spray paint the whole thing; you can paint with a wood paint gloss 20 on the wood filler after you've sanded it. Only you will remember that the damage was there!
Thanks! Great tips from everyone! Yes, Stadsfiskalen, I actually think you're right about the varnishing. What do you think is best in the long run? Installing a new piece of wood is probably the most durable option? Epoxy also feels stable, but maybe difficult to work with during sanding?
