It's actually not down to the wood. The cabinet had the original finish so after a very light sand I toned over it with Perfect Brown Ultra Classic. When I rubbed out the spots it didn't go all the way down. I don't think this matters but it's worth asking. Assuming I need to sand it down should I go all the way around to the front since the side wraps around to the front (see photo)? My guess is the answer is yes.

Side note - I really like the way the perfect brown looks after a bunch of passes. It ends up a deep color with a nice reddish, fire-like tint. It looks cool.

Thanks guys. Appreciate the tips.

Best//Rob
