First Time Refinish - 39-6
#5

Oh, trust me Kirk, there will be lots of questions.

Anyway, it turns out there is a Mohawk distributor not to far from me.  So I can pick up most of the supplies (assuming I go all Mohawk) locally and save quite a bit on shipping.  His prices also seem very cheap - pretty much all aerosols are only $5.96.  He does have a website and ships too if anyone is interested - https://www.jfwfs.com is his site.  I have yet to deal with him and have no connection to him - I just discovered him today.

So, as long as he is local and I can save shipping, I'm thinking of going all Mohawk from him with the following stuff:
  • TONE FINISH TONER EXTRA DARK WALNUT (or Black, still undecided - open to opinions in addition to Kirk who already voiced his Icon_biggrin  )
  • ULTRA CLASSIC TONER MEDIUM BROWN WALNUT                    
  • TONE FINISH LACQUER SANDING SEALER        
  • ULTRA FLO CLEAR GLOSS (or is satin more correct?)
  • GRAIN FILLER MEDIUM WALNUT QT
I see they also make an epoxy filler in various colors.  Would something like tjis be good to cheat and fill my chips in with?

Anything else I'm missing here supply wise?
