Thanks again!!I'll give this a try. I typically email them to myself
I'm going to start sanding today. Do I need to apply sanding sealer diring this process? The cabinet currently has 2 coats of clear on it from which has cured for 3 days.
I compared my cabinet to the photo on Steve Davis's repro page and the tone is nearly identical except for the finished trim, and possibly the fancy wood arch. It may not require too much to get to where I'd like it to be.
Fingers are crossed
