Has anyone had a GOOD experience with a wood refinisher? *No* first hand knowledge. Here are a few links. A page from our own Jaime showed up close to the top of the search. :) http://www.jaimekop.com/w108-wood-refinishing/ These guys come pretty highly recommended. http://www.maderaconcepts.com/NewSite/VehiclePages/mercedes_benz.htm They do Rollers, so it probably will not be cheap. http://www.rau-autowood.com/refinish.htm Looks promising. http://www.doanemotorwerks.com/interior-wood-leather-carpet-restorations.php That should keep you busy.
