Philco 37-116 toner
#1

Hi All, well I put this off long enough. I drove 6 hours round trip over 5 years ago for this Philco. I had the chassis done long ago put keep putting off the cabinet refinish because it’s not my favorite thing to do and I have no spray equipment. So I have 2 questions..#1.. anyone know what color toners to use and #2.. is it possible to do a decent job on a big cabinet using rattle cans.
I have it stripped and while using OMS on it, the grain and color really pop on it. So much so that I’m considering just hitting it with sanding sealer and 3 coats of gloss clear lacquer. I did similar on a Majestic I did earlier this year and thought it came out great. I would like to do the base trim and around the top with some color for contrast. Anyone have a guesstimate on how many cans of clear I might need. Thanks for any input..

Ron
