Joe's Maggie
#12

Hi All Steve what gloss should I use for the first two coats of lacquer before the toner is put on? I did buy a quart of Behlen grain filler. Also did buy some golden oak toner. How do you spread the filler (cloth scraper etc.) what do you wipe it (cross grain) with (burlap?) I am guessing the finish lacquer should satin on semi-gloss I dont want it to look to shiney. I saw the cabinet work you did for Ron, you really do good work
Thanks Joe
