Starting restore on 118 cathedral
#15

(01-19-2016, 08:48 PM)Frederick W. Taylor Wrote:  Hello Nathan, I had used Mohawk medium walnut stain on cabinet except for the front center section and the butter fly wings. The center and wings were left raw and were toned with light golden oak spray can toner by Mohawk. Grain filler was used as all my cabinets are. Also I mite add that the front panels minis wings and center were toned darker along with the bottom moldings and the arch had a little fade out using extra dark walnut using my airbrush. Hope that helps you. Let me know if there's any thing else.


OK great!

Just to be sure which products you used - are these right?
And it was stain rather than lacquer for most of the cabinet?


Cabinet (other than front center section and butterfly wings)
Wiping Wood Stain, M545-02054

Center and wings:
Ultra Classic Toner Aerosol, M100-0415
http://www.mohawk-finishing.com/catalog_...ictNbr=171

What product do you use with the air brush? How commonly do you use an airbrush for cabinet refinishing?

Thank you very much for the info.
