Happy Easter to everyone!!!  
I was hoping someone on this list could advise me on how to bring back to life 
an eleven panel wood-grained cygnet horn.  I was going through my extra parts 
and always thought the eleven panel horn I have was just a dirty black painted 
one.  Well, the dirt is there quite thick along with a type of coating (maybe 
shellac).  With more light, the color is actually dark brown.  The surface is 
quite rough and alligatored.  Beneath the crud is actually the original wood 
grained finish.  My question is how can I remove the "crud" layer without 
destroying the wood grain finish?   Thanks for any advise.  Ken Brekke
