Touching up Stained Trim
I've had to move a wall in our kitchen, which reqired me to rework some of
the stained crown molding. The first problem is that I can't find replacement molding (ours is a unique profile). So, I'm having to re-use some of the existing material. It would be nice if I knew where the molding came from, or how it was finished, but that information was probably lost way back in the house's ownership chain. Long story short, I had to touch up the stain on one piece, and then squirted it with some spray-on polyurethane. It looked good when the poly was wet, but a day later, the section I touched up has turned milky white. Obviously some sort of finish incompatability. The question is, how do I figure out what finish is on the crown molding, so I can touch it up with something compatable? Thanks in advance. KB |

I've had the same thing happen. Mike O. |
