Philco 38-12 Cabinet Strip
#12

WOW...that looks incredible! I was concerned whether the stain would collect within the seams around the inlays and appear as dark outlines, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Given your amazing results I might just try the same thing, but had a few questions:

-When you stripped it down to bare wood, did you use sandpaper or steel wool before applying the stain? If, so, what grit? This obviously has a noticeable effect on how the stain permeates the wood, but would prefer to minimize wood removal if possible.

-As for both stains, were these oil or water based? Aerosol spray or brush-on? Both Mohawk?

-Can you please advise on which lacquer brand you used, and if it was spray or brush-on?

-How many coats of lacquer did you apply?

Apologies for all the questions, but I want to be sure I use the exact same products in an attempt to achieve similar results, although I'm certain it won't look as nice as your work of art! Really appreciate it.
