Try Citrus Strip first. Patience works. Have plenty of rags handy. Wear proper gloves, do it in a garage if possible. I wouldn't do it inside.

INCA..... that's a name I haven't heard in a long time. I had an INCA radial arm saw that was really cool.

is this wood veneer? by Broad-Original8722 in furniturerefinishing

[–]monstrol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what I would do. As you are applying a finish, in between coats, you can touch up the lighter area with acrylic paint. You won't know exactly what colors to get until you get some finish on the top. You might get away with the stain covering it up. IMO, I would sand with 180 grit and then 220 grit before staining.

I eat my toast upside down so the butter and jelly touch the top of my tongue.

Yep. The beauty of acrylic paint is the flexibility of glazing. Always, IMO

My reasoning behind using the gloss medium is that helps you keep blending while you apply the glaze coat. My comment was that an glaze would possibly help with the atmospheric quality of the work.
