Thanks

Thanks "marksr" and "sirwired" for your advice.... I am removing all the latex from over the oil based paint. Just like you said, no silver bullet here.

Restaining previously stained oak door

Andy Mann on Oct 15, 2008

I have sanded down an oak door to bare wood, except for moldings which are too difficult to sand by hand. Some of the old lacquer finish remains. I want to stain the door darker but I am concerned that any new stain and finish will not adhere to the existing lacquer. One of the waterborn poly/stains I tried reacted to the lacquer residue and looks like crap. Do I have to strip away all the lacquer or is there an easier way to get the door stained down? If I do have to strip the lacquer, any product recommendations? Thank for any help...I'm getting desperate!
