How to Prep and Paint a Dresser Made with Particle Board || Extreme Dresser Makeover

This dresser on Facebook Marketplace caught my eye because it had a lot of decorative details. However, much to my chagrin, it is completely made of particle board. Boo! The bottom edges also had some damage that needed to be repaired and fortified to prevent further damage.
Cleaning the piece was a little tricky. If soap and water stays on the surface too long, it can seep into the fibers of the board and start to swell. In fact, there was a little water damage already on the top.
Come watch how this little diamond in the rough is restored into an unrecognizable dresser.
