Philco 45 Butterfly Restoration Chronicles....Finished
#15

Looks like you've got it going your way, Old Res.
For future reference,.. I want to tell all you guys,..

I truly tried to help people on the Cabinet restoration forum of the arf.
They didn't want to hear about the correct way to do woodwork and finishing.
I have been doing both everyday for the last 28 years, so if you guys ever want my help, feel free to ask me.
I believe in working smart so you can enjoy a project instead of wearing yourself out and getting frustrated.
I don't claim to be anything, other than one with knowledge happy to help those willing to learn.

I will say this, If you use Oven cleaner for stripper, Gojo for a wood moisturizer , Howard's "Ignore a finish", or Polyurethane. And you are satisfied with these ?,.. then you won't be needing my help, I don't practice those applications.

I believe in restoring with the correct and the best materials for the job, if you don't have the money, save it up and do it right.

I am happy to lend a hand if anyone needs help.
Best way to contact me is through my website at :

You are well on your way, Old Res,.. looks like you are going to come through this Butterfly project with Flying colors Icon_eh Icon_lolno
Pardon the pun
