Possibly buying this 8s563 from a guy. Cabinet is pretty nice but would like to know if the finish was actual wood or fake. " nydoc" I think is the term I seen once. Would like to spray a coat of lacquer on it next spring but not sure what I would be getting in to. Thanks!

There is photo finish on that cabinet, the grill bars and outer edges . You can lightly scuff or sand cabinet and clean real good. Then spray on your lacquer clear coats . Careful not to burn though the old clear when sanding.
