I am green on this; need advice on what to do?
#11

Hello Folks,
I have gone over many of the threads on cabinet restoration and refinishing.
Wow, there seems to be so many methods, it's hard to pick one.
So far, I like the idea of "Pore O Pac" Medium brown walnut.
With that product, not sure what I should use for a sealer first.

OK, made the mistake of watching a few You Tube videos and came across this product:
"Solarez I Can’t Believe It’s Not Lacquer" Grain Sealer
Have you folks heard of this? Looks pretty impressive?
Apparently you can do this with or without sealer.
So many paths to take, just have to choose one...

Really appreciate all the advice I've gotten so far.
By the way, I cleaned the radio up enough to plug it in and it works!!!
