Currently working on a 44B. The cabinet has an "issue". I attached a photo of part of the cabinet. I don't want to get into the re-finishing business and I'm hoping there is a relatively simple solution to make this look presentable, as I don't want to re-finish the cabinet if that is possible.
I used Howard Restor-a-Finish, but that wasn't going to solve the issue. I haven't done any serious cabinet restoration and don't have any of the stuff I see some talk about.
I have a few other cathedrals and tombstones that have the similar issue.
Is there a good YouTube showing how to remedy this type of problem?
Thanks!
