crosley barn radio
#8

Well the red is gone, the finish underneath is the original lacquer. That should come off with lacquer thinner. Again, put the radio in a seal-able container and forget it for few hours. Tighter the seal the better.

Avoid the scrapper. Edges of the scrapper will compress the wood, when the stain is applied these compressed wood fibers will not be as dark. If that happens the cabinet will have to be thoroughly sanded to get to fresh meat... Veneer may not hold up!
