mrphilco,
I was looking at your 66's before and after pics(from the "Another Philco save...post), and love the refinish job. My question deals with how you did the 2 tone colors as far as keeping the dark toned lacquer from getting to the parts of the cabinet it didn't belong. Was any special tape used to mask off the parts that didn't get the toner? I have a 45 butterfly that was stripped of it's original finish and refinished with just one color stain like your "before" 66 pic. I'll want to restore the 45's original 2 tone look, which means masking off parts of the cabinet that don't get dark toner. It should be a challenge. THANKS!!
Ed M.
