Ron's 2016 Cabinet Work Part I: Bozak E-300
#84

Thanks, guys! Icon_biggrin

I had a bit of a scare today...

After returning home from my half day at work to find the rain holding off, I decided to take everything outside and start spraying clear Rustoleum Lacquer on all of the pieces.

The tops immediately blushed like crazy. Icon_redface

And Mohawk's No Blush Plus did not seem to help! Icon_eek

So...

I decided to let things dry and tackle the issue another day.

When I went back to the garage to bring everything back into the basement, the blushing was all but gone from the tops! Icon_crazy

A little later, the tops do not show any blushing at all...

Whew! That's a relief!

The forecast is calling for rain...every day...for the coming week. I will eventually get back to work on these pieces, but I am going to wait until the weather clears up before doing any more work on the pieces.

The next move: Wet sanding, followed by more coats of clear. As the originals appeared to have several coats of clear, I am also going to apply several coats, wet sanding in between every 2-3 coats.

And, unless I am overruled by one of you cabinet experts, I probably will not apply more than 8-9 coats of clear.
