Hey guys, I'm kind of new here and I'm not real great with all of the terminology... so take it easy on me!
I am planning on finishing a writing desk made from Cherry later this week, and was hoping to get any input from you guys on what my steps should be, and what some good results you have seen in the past took to get.
I want to do a fairly dark stain to match our bookshelves and another chair in the room, but other than that (and the desire for a glossy durable finish) I am completely open to your suggestions! I'm not even sure what sandpaper grit to finish with and what I'll need besides one coat of stain and one clear-coat. I need help.
Thanks so much!
