[QUOTE="Rolfeskj, post: 111200, member: 1583"]I ended up buying the desk for $125. It is in good shape but need a few small things to be fixed and needs to be refinished. I have had good luck on another small item when I sanded it, stain then Polly. I feel like i need to sand as the desk top has a few scratches, some up to 1/8" deep. I have also used lacquer on a cherry piece I made which came out nicer than Polly but I had issues with the Lacquer getting thicker and showing some brush strokes the more coats I put on. So should I sand or use a chemical striper? Should I used polly, varnish, lacquer or something else? Also it does not have a key, how hard are they to find? Thanks for the help.[/QUOTE]
