Thank you!

Great job

nice work

Do you think this same look can be achieved using stock cabinets from Lowe’s or Home Depot? Any recommendations? Thank you

Beautiful

Hi Antonia, I had a sheet metal shop build a watertight galvanized box. I poured in enough lacquer thinner to cover the inserted doors (hardware removed) to be stripped. I covered the box to reduce evaporation. I used heavy rubber gloves and I wore a cartridge mask for fumes. I lifted the door up with a small pry bar and picked it up while I layed a couple boards on top of the box to support the door. With a 5" putty knife I scraped off the dissolved lacquer and dumped it into a bucket below. I scraped all the flat surfaces. Then, I used a large stiff brush with about a 18" handle. I dipped the brush into the lacquer and scrubbed the surface, especially the seams. I quickly wiped off the loosened lacquer with paper towels. I added paper towels as needed. I dipped a wadded paper towel into the lacquer and did a final cleaning of the whole surface, especially the cracks. Again, I wiped it with clean paper towels. My video of this process is no longer available? I don't know why. The galvanized box can be used for many other purposes. It was used for raising seedlings and for growing a group of succulents. It doesn't rust. Use citrusstrip for removing lacquer from the cabinet frames.

what's the brand of stain?

Thank for taking the time to make this video. I'd like to ask, were your cabinet new and bare to begin with, or have you stripped them of their previous finish? If so, what finish were they prior. I have honey oak cabinets that I would like to refinish. I have already cleaned and sanded them to as close to bare wood as possible.
