40-201 Cabinet Stain Used
#4

Ron mentioned "Mohawk" which is the company that sells the tinted lacquers he was referring to. See: http://www.mohawk-finishing.com/catalog_...?ictNbr=22

There are two versions, Tone Finish Toners and Ultra Classic Toners. The difference is that the Tone Finish Toners have pigments for the coloring and the Ultra Classic uses dyes. The pigmented toners tend to be a little more opaque and the dyes less so. Others with much more experience can offer more advice but that's the supplier. You can buy the Mohawk products from other suppliers as well and there are other brands of toners that some people use. Some folks buy the pigments or dyes and blend up their own and use a spray gun. I've only used the rattle cans so far and only on a couple radios.
