I have some 70s wooden furniture and I would like to smarten it up.

I want to strip the varnish off but it is tough stuff. I can sand it off but it takes a lot of hard work as well as lots of sand paper.

Anyone have any ideas?

Nitromors doesn't touch it

there used to be a place just before hillsbrough barracks that did furniture stripping,not sure of the name,its on infirmary road
