glossy or semi-gloss?
#6

Thanks for the distributor link. Sorta close but not that close for me in Sactown. I'll get the Mohawk online if I decide to go that route. Been in a finishing/refinishing class class at a local JC and have learned how to feather oil stain (Zar in this case) by carefully brushing out with a Chinese bristle brush with very interesting results. Looks like a sprayed toner finish when done. The instructor is a magician. This could work on the edges and feet.

On the "medium walnut" and "perfect brown ultra classic" ,is that the Mohawk lacquer spray or an oil stain? Are you talking no stain, just the lacquer toner to achieve the color or use a base coat of oil stain too?

Thanks for the info.
