there was some discussion of my cabinet before
http://philcoradio.com/phorum/showthread...853&page=3
Jamie put this notice:
>>>>Morzh, if you purchase that trim, be sure to ask Steve how well it takes toner. Most "new" wood that I have added to cabinets had to be sealed before toning. Otherwise, the new wood just soaks up the lacquer like a sponge. Steve will be able to guide you on how to make the trim match your cabinet when you start to add a finish.
By any chance this could be giving you grief?
