crazing repair
#3

Hey murf, I have had good luck with Howards Restore-a-finish...I have done 5 or 6 consoles that where in good shape with crazing and it took some of the crazing away. Ive got 2 37-116's(one standard dial, one deluxe) and a 38-116 that I will be during this treatment to...I go over the entine cabinet with non pumice GOJO and 0000 steel wool...Going with the grain of the wood to take all the grime and scuffs that come with most cabinets...Then I clean the cabinet with Murphy's oil soap...I let the cabinet set for a couple days to dry out and wipe it down again with an old t-shirt because there will be some leftover GOJO residue that will come out after the cabinets sits...I then go small areas at a time with walnut Howards until it is all covered and then buff with a microfiber rag...Then onto a coat of Johnsons paste wax...Turns out beautiful...
