viking Posted June 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 very nice, wish mine looked like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nagantino Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 That's a terrific finish. On the original post, I'm pretty certain that is a lacquer finish......it's a ****** to remove and not at all like varnish. I took to a Winchester 550 years ago and lived to regret it. I finished it but never again. It needed coats and coats of stain to hide the burnt look. We all learn and thanks for the post. I bought an old 1964 Yeoman recently and had bought the refinish kit and all but when I got it home I thought " hey that looks ok" and left it.

Mr.C Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 Have to say if it looks even better in the flesh not surprised you're happy. Expect it feels better in the hand too, if that doesn't sound a bit dodgy. 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
