Rolls-Royce Wood Refinishing

Stan Scantlin describes the process of refinishing the wood on 3DL170, a 1939 Rolls-Royce Phantom-III. For pictures of the refinished wood, see http://www.flickr.com/photos/8423975@N06/sets/72157604638726510/

I really admire the skill and craftsmanship that goes into making and restoring the veneer from these motorcars. Have you thought about making a video where you record yourself working on the wood at all the different stages so we get to see how it's done and the right way to use all of the products that you mentioned. I'd love to be able to do it myself!

Hello and thanks for posting. I have 3BU180, 1937 Plll Windovers, that needs some woodwork. I think the wood looks like a zebra wood type. wondering where to find info on different wood types of these old Rolls.
