Redoing / Touching up Trim 42-PT95
#12

A Couple of Questions and Comments

#1) Ron you stated

Quote:For the body of the cabinet, you probably won't need to prime if you spray the entire cabinet with Mohawk Medium Walnut first to get the cabinet the proper color

*** This Mohawk Medium Walnut is this a spray lacquer or a stain or a finish toner ?????? Can you provide a link ????? *****

I can find Mohawk Tone Finisher, and Ultra Classic Toner in Medium Brown Walnut, but not a tinted lacquer.

#2) I can find Deft in spray cans online (but not locally, my Lowes & Home Depot do not have them in stock). Which should I use: Gloss, Satin or Sanding Sealer ? ? ?

Would Valspar Clear Gloss Spray Lacquer be an acceptable substitute ?

#3) If I go the stripping route for the finish, what can I do about the Philco decal in the front ? Are new ones available ? Do I mask that off and try to "blend" the finish around the decal area ???

#4) Cleaning cabinet with Gojo. I have read that you use #0000 Steel wool and the gojo ? How do you clean the gojo off the cabinet, just wipe it off after it has been rubbed in ?

Thanks again for all your assistance !
