[QUOTE="fireroad, post: 447388, member: 17359"] I tried the steel wool trick and it's not working out...looks pretty bad actually which surprised the heck out of me. I have no idea what this factory finish is but I have used steel wool on countless wood working projects with great results. I read on another forum I belong to (I know, shame on me) and someone suggested taking it to a furniture stripper who would dip it for less then $20 (they said $5 but that seemed too cheap). I thought that would work great but I did talk to a retired cabinet maker who said if you chemical strip on a laminate it will lift the veneer of the wood and it would look like crap. Any thoughts?
