Restoration of a Soviet-era cabinet can involve several types of work. For example, eliminating scratches or chips, removing stains or dents, restoring the surface's shine after mechanical damage or exposure to sunlight and moisture. Sometimes, it may require replacing certain parts, such as handles or decorative elements. Of course, a combination of tasks might be necessary as well. In general, furniture restoration refers to a set of tasks aimed at returning the furniture to its original appearance and functionality. This process requires specialized equipment, carefully selected materials, and expertise in the field.

That's why furniture restoration, including cabinets, is handled only by experienced specialists. DIY restoration may not only fail to fix the problem but could also make it worse.

For example, to repair mechanical damage to a cabinet surface, FIXWORKS craftsmen use a filler, touch-up, and a ring-free varnish. All components, carefully selected in the exact tone and composition needed, ensure the perfect result. The restoration process includes surface repair by filling with melt-in filler, recreating the wood grain pattern, and finishing with a ring-free varnish. The restoration time will depend on the drying speed of the materials and the complexity of the cabinet’s surface pattern.
