I am into the cabinet restoration of my Philco 84. It seems there are 3 differrent tones/stains on this canibet. It is currently stripped down. The trim and grooves (face) almost seem to be done in black paint? Does anyone know if this should be an ebony stain, or some kind of a paint? I keep reading about some "Mohawk" stuff, but I haven't seen this brand in any of the stores. Also, any wood filler recomendations?
