I've ordered Mahogany veneer. The plan is:
- Mohawk brown mahogany toned lacquer
- Amber lacquer over that
- base of tv black lacquer paint, gloss
- clear lacquer over everything
QUESTION: for polishing and such, I've heard that a gloss lacquer finish can be "rubbed out" so that it is nice and deep and original looking, not highly glossy. Is that what "Deluxing Compunt", like from Behlen is for? How do you rub out the finish so that it is rich and warm and doesn't scream "i've just been refinished", and isn't full on mirror glossy?
