We continue by using many coats of mohawk brand lacquers and toners applied in. The same manner as when the radio was originally finished in the factory. Use a nitrocellulose piano lacquer which is applied through a professional hvlp. Turbine spray system in a climate controlled room. We also apply very thin coats. This allows the lacquer to seep into. The grain and not cover it up. A fine grit wet sanding follows every third coat. Along with a polishing process and ending with an oz glaze rub.
