Refinish Glossy Surfaces

When refinishing glossy or enam.
eled surfaces, they should be rubbed
with steel wool or very fine sand
paper to dull the old finish, assum-
ing that it is not cracked or Clipped,
to provide a tooth" for the new
finish. If the old finish is scratched
or Clipped, it should be removed
with paint and varnish remover,
and the residue cleaned off with
turpentine or benzene. The surface
then should be rinSed with clean
water and allowed to dry thoroughly
before refinishing. If enamel is to
be used, at least two coats should be
applied, the first coat being fiat
undercoater, and the second coat a
gloss or semi-gloss enamel or an
"eggshell'' finish, as preferred.
