Tnx.
>Spraying in the house again?
Not so much. The weather has been good so I haven't had to resort to in home spraying. I did bring some of the work inside to dry after spraying as I was a little concerned about blushing. Haven't lugged the Mohawk order down stairs yet. Did mark all the lids so I can see what I've got in the box at a glance.
> Is it all one color?
More or less. I does shift a little w/different lighting. The new front panel looked like oak ( more in the yellow range) so after toning it w/ medium brown it still was not matching very well. Ended up giving it a light coat of cherry toner. This is what it look like before.
Didn't really like the three tone look.
