Well first of all the 41-280 does not have any mahogany veneer on it, the original veneer was French walnut, either straight cut or quarter sawn (I'm not sure which). Second I don't know of anyone that has replaced the dienoc with veneer on those vertical styles near the speaker grille, I suppose it is possible but the only way that I can think of veneer it is with a vacuum bag or by using some sort of clamping jig. The easies way to replace it is by using paint or by using more Dienoc which is still made by 3M.
