KLH Model Five ~ Restoration Part 2 ~ Cabinet Repairs & Refinishing

In part 2 of the KLH Model Five Restoration I cover masking and sanding the cabinets, scratch and gouge repair, Danish oil application and various issues encountered along the way. I finish up by painting the baffles black.

Notes:
If you want to mask the crossover hole in the cabinet this is better done from the inside, painters tape will remove the brown paint from the back of the cabinet and it may need to get repainted.
