My neighbor has asked me to finish a table for her. The table is a commercially produced solid wood table that apparently sat outdoors for some time. Probably at least a couple of years. The table has weathered differently in different spots, and my neighbor wants me to try to reproduce the effect of one of the spots of weathering on the whole table because she likes how it looks. I'll try to attach a photo for reference. The part she likes the look of, there are still portions of of the old manufacturers finish adhered to the table, but about half the finish has cracked and worn away. But on another part of the table, I think she tried to clean it, and rubbed off almost all of the remaining old finish so it's pretty much bare wood. Then the leaves have basically no weathering at all. On the leaves, I'm just going to try to distress it with a sander, but the part with the finish rubbed away has me stumped. Can I apply some sort of lacquer or varnish or something that looks like a manufacturer finish, and then cause it to chip off? I know how to make a crackle paint effect, but not with lacquer/varnish. After I'm done, I plan to put on a few coats of polycrylic. Thanks.20180104_191010.jpg
