A++ Thanks ! exactly what I was looking for...and couldn't find.

Do you see an issue if I substitute clear gloss lacquer for the Mohawk pre catalyzed clear before spraying the flutes (because that's what I have on hand) ? I assume that 'Mohawk pre catalyzed clear' is what you mean by clear in your write up ?

Also, why are you spraying clear on the face front after you colorize the speaker cutout edges on that build of the cabinet, before using toner ?
"The dark toner has been sanded off the face of the front panel and two more coats of clear have been sprayed."
And then you go over the face front which was sprayed with two coats clear, with toner (?) , where the arch area did not get the clear coats before the toner, just a grain fill.

I am having a hard time wrapping my mind around spraying toner on top of clear (lacquer?)
For years I have always stained and then used my spray guns for the lacquer. However never worked with "toner" before.

Thanks a bunch guys.
