Ron's RCA T7-5 Cabinet Rescue
#34

Yes, it does, but I wasn't sure how much trouble it would be to remove that sheet of veneer so I just left it in place. It seemed to be glued down quite tightly save for the two lower corners which have since been glued back down.

I have applied grain filler to the cabinet. No toning today - I'll have to let the grain filler set until tomorrow, and it is supposed to rain (again) the next three days, so toning will have to wait.
