60MB cabinet needs some love
#8

With the warmer weather its been time to work on this cabinet again.  Did some grain filling using Timbermate (walnut color).  Its water soluble, so easy to mix up a slurry and spread it on, scrape it off and then lightly sand.

Toned the cabinet with Mohawk medium brown walnut ultra classic and the trim with black lacquer.  Unfortunately when I pulled some of the tape up after the black lacquer application some of the veneer came up.  Fortunately I was able to glue it back down without too much difficulty.

I think I've got the final gloss lacquer layer down now and will paint the edges of the grill cutouts with a flat black acrylic.  The sunlight gives it a little more red color than what you see indoors.  Final sand and rub out in a few weeks.
