Mohawk Toner choice for model 70
#1

I apologize if this has been asked before....I did a search and couldn't pinpoint a thread on the topic...but my model 70 has just too much finish cracking and crazing to be salvageable. Reluctantly, I'm going to have to refinish it. So, I'm looking for advice on which shades of walnut toner I should use on which areas? Thanks.

Hi Greg,

There's this very detailed walk through of a refinish of a model 90. I think the 70 and 90 are finished the same - hopefully someone else can confirm for sure:
