I just bought a used 1950s formica dinner table with matching vinyl seats. it needs a lot of work, but was only 75 for the set.
the set is supposed to be grey and white but the years have turned the seats grey and yellow. i know how to polish up the chrome on the legs and possibly patch the ripped parts of the chair cushions, but does anybody know how to get the yellow discoloration out? or should i just reupholster the chairs?
any hints or tips on keeping the formica nice?
