glossy or semi-gloss?
#4

In order to avoid pigmented lacquer that quickly turns into paint with too many coats, use Mohawk's Ultra Classic toners instead. And you won't find Mohawk products in your local hardware store (unfortunately) - you do have to order them online.

Mohawk's Medium Walnut Tone Finish does not seem to have as much pigment as other Tone Finish colors. I think I would use Medium Walnut overall on that cabinet, with Perfect Brown Ultra Classic on the edges and feet.

The original finish would have been gloss lacquer, hand rubbed.
