Thanks for the tip Arran. This will be the first refinish I attempt. Mohawk has a million choices. It appears Tone Finish Toners are pigment based and the Ultra Classic line is dye based - for transparency. So I'm guessing Ultra Classic is the way to go for the wood. As for the trim, the Tone Finish Toners line have a black gloss. And according to Mohawk, all their clear lacquers work with Ultra Classic.

As for grain filler - Mohawk has a sanding sealer but I also have a Minwax sanding sealer on hand - would that work?? Now to find an online dealer that has the full line.

But then I look back at Ron's post and he is saying Tone Finish doesnt have a lot of pigment. So maybe it would work. This refinish stuff seems complicated...
