38-690 Refinish June Update
#37
Photo 

Well the cabinet is finally done. I did rub out the finish using 1000 and 1500 grit wet sanding, followed by Mohawk Stage 3 Poly Buff. There were three grits of Poly Buff, Medium, Fine, and Extra Fine. Each step was followed by the next till done. I gave the whole cabinet a coat of OZ Cream Polish after the rub down. Here are the results. I plan to have better pictures once it's together shortly.

I will say this has been quite a learning experience, and a gloss finish will certainly bring out any flaws that exist. The main thing is that I learned so much by doing this project, that I won't hesitate to do another of this magnitude, and make improvements too.
