38-116xx pics/Now Here
#23

And I've asked before and you've provided some of the basics... but if you could lay out an exact, detailed, step-by-step procedure on how you obtain such a BEAUTIFUL finish we would all be very grateful.

- What do you use to strip your cabinets?
- What type of grain filler do you use? How many applications?
- What prep work do you do before spraying?
- Are you spraying in a spray booth or spraying in your garage?
- How many coats of lacquer do you use and what brand and type?
- What spray gun do you use?
- Detailed, step-by-step procedures.

(i.e. strip, grain fill, application of lacquers and toners, types of lacquers and toners, how you mix your lacquer, retarder, etc., etc., etc..)

I know it would be hard to quantify decades of experience in putting together such a procedure but your cabinet refinishing is by far some of the best I've ever seen and I've been in the hobby for 15 years. Passing on that knowledge will only benefit the hobby.
