Side Door Transformation on a Tight Budget
Go to Home Depot or Loews and take the lamp find an older guy and I know he will help you
You could try cleaning it with Wood Soap then rubbing linseed oil to recondition it.
Restain it or paint and give it a good coat of marine epoxy top coat, I like satin finish. The stuff is very strong and last years, and I live on the ocean and the front door takes a beating. I like to take the door down, and do the edge on the bottom so the wood doesn't wick up the water into the fibers..... https://www.google.com/search?client=opera&q=marine+epoxy+top+coat&sourceid=opera&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8#q=marine+epoxy+satin+top+coat
Clean with Dawn rinse then stain, paint or use an oil to condition the wood.
