1949 Dodge Dash graining

["John G. Napoli" <john@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the info!  I look forward to learning more about this, as I will
need to regrain the window frames.

However, my observations over the years have been that redone woodgraining
never holds a candle to that done at the factory.  Since I think that my
'extra' dash is in pretty good shape, I will probably swap that one over
regardless.

But, I still would give this technique a chance first on the window frames,
so please do forward anything you find.

Best regards,

John
