I have finally gotten all of the Cabinet repairs done and am at the point where I am able to apply the toner.  I actually did the center part yesterday.  

Does anyone have any tips on how to tone/color the small sculpted areas next to the grille cloth?  In the pictures that I have seen, it appears to match the outer section (Perfect Brown Ultra Classic).  I was thinking of trying to do it with a small brush and some of the Perfect Brown toner.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks, Bill
