Okay!
Three coats of toner were enough for the trim. I am very pleased with the color now. And this time, spraying carefully, the toner did not run down the edges as it did before.
I've set the bottom trim aside, flipped the tops over (right side up), and given both tops three coats of sanding sealer.
Later, I will wet sand the tops and then apply three coats of toner.
And that is probably as far as I will get until the next time I am able to work on them. The high humidity was causing the toner to "blush" in spots. Thankfully, I have the cure in a can...Mohawk No Blush Plus.
But I won't be able to spray lacquer tomorrow or Sunday with the probability of rain and possible flash flooding. Any lacquer spraying in those conditions would result in lots of blushing. I'll just have to wait it out.
