Title: Wood grain replacement Post by: Coke536 on October 27, 2013, 02:55:08 pm The vinyl wood grain on my Cavalier USS-8-64 and CSS-8-64 is weathered and I'd like to replace it. I've read in other posts how to remove the vinyl, but where do you find the replacement vinyl wood grain? Are there alternatives to the wood grain that look good?
I've kept the wood grain looking in fair condition with brown shoe polish, but it tends to fade after a few weeks or so. Thanks, Jim Title: Re: Wood grain replacement Post by: Kilroy on October 27, 2013, 04:14:43 pm I will deny saying this, but wood grain contact paper is still available in stores. Check the housewares section, or ask the clerk for "shelf paper.
I've also seen it at my local Ace hardware, Lowes, Kmart, Walmart, Michaels.... Title: Re: Wood grain replacement Post by: NinjaKai on October 31, 2013, 11:55:21 pm Just a thought.
Why not go with actual wood vaniar? Title: Re: Wood grain replacement Post by: Kilroy on November 01, 2013, 06:32:23 am You could, but contact paper is a few bucks a roll and doesn't require contact cement :)
