I'm getting ready to refinish a 19B cabinet.

It looks like the front panel should be able to be taken off and refinished separately? It seems like that might be easier than masking off everything. Any thoughts on disassembly vs. masking things off?

If disassembly isn't a crazy idea... how does this thing come apart? I've removed all of the screws that appear to hold the front panel on. I thought it might be glued so I tried heating it from the backside with a heat gun. That did seem to loosen it a bit but it's still stuck.
