CABINET TOP REFINISHING QUESTION
#3

Thanks for your reply, Bob.  This radio is a floor model.  I have successfully removed the small spot of urethane which I applied and am now ready to try either toner or stain.  As it is almost impossible to obtain toner in Canada I will go with the stain followed by sprayed on Watco satin lacquer ( a couple of local wood finishers recommended satin lacquer over semi-gloss).  Knowing that the wood is quite possibly walnut helps but it is not veneer but solid 3/4" wood.  I will try to locate a piece of walnut on which to experiment. I tried unsuccessfully to attach three pix of the radio.
