It's your radios and you are of course free to use polyurethane, chalk paint, smear mud or cow dung on the cabinets, or whatever. I'll stick (no pun intended) to lacquer finishes. I can only add what Rev. Mason used to say - You may not agree with me. You have every right to be wrong if you want to be. Icon_smile
