TO J.HUNT SEMI-PASTE STRIPPER (ANY GOOD NAME BRAND) IS THE FIRST STEP AFTER REPAIRING ANY LOOSE OR MISSING VENEER. THE MORE POTENT THE BETTER.CARNIGE CHEMICAL CO OF NYC HAS EXCELLENT PRODUCTS ,SOME OF WHICH ARE NON-FLAMABLE. THIS FIRST STEP PROBABLY WILL HAVE TO BE REPEATED A COUPLE OF TIMES. NEXT, USE PARKS FURNITURE REFINISHER APPLIED WITH 0000 STEEL WOOL PADS. YOU WILL NEED PLENTY OF VENTILATION WITH THIS PRODUCT - IT DOES A GREAT JOB OF CLEANING THE VENEER AND OPENING THE GRAIN. STEP THREE IS TO FILL THE VENEER GRAIN (WEB PHILLIPS STYLE) THEN FINISH WITH WHATEVER YOU WISH TO USE. PARKS PRODUCTS ARE EQUAL TO FORMBY HOWEVER, MUCH LESS EXPENSIVE. GOOD LUCK! LB.(RI)
