Re: Hmv 650
Hi Steve, thanks! I used Nitromors varnish stripper wearing a mask and with good ventilation in the garage, also using wire wool. Cleaned off the resulting sludge with white spirit. Followed with a very light sanding using fine grade paper. I used Mohawk Van Dyke brown toner applied with a brush to the crossbar below the speaker grille, which didn't appear to be veneered. Then sprayed the whole cabinet with RustOleum clear semi-gloss spray lacquer. When hardened I finished off any areas that were dulled owing to mottled overspray using T-Cut. I hand painted the feet and top panel edging using black enamel. Cheers, Jerry
