38-690 Refinish June Update
#9

Chemical paint strippers seem to work on poly effectively, but are stinky and you have to wear gloves as they really harsh on skin.
Water based paint stripper also work but much slower.



The photo finish, as I understand it, was mostly used on tabletops in 1937? The consoles I saw, especially the expensive ones, like 37-116, don't seem to have it?

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
