Very easy Mike,
I had toned the whole front with perfect brown and was going to use some dark walnut on the outer design but it was all way too dark. I was going to strip the cabinet and tape it off and re-tone it but I figured i'd try just stripping the center. I used tiny bit of lacquer thinner with tiny pieces of steel wool and bit by bit stripped the center. I figured if I made a spill or mistake then I could strip everything but It came out undamaged. It is amazing how much nicer the finish comes out when it is not 45 degrees out.
Today I will tape the back off and tone the last of the trim.
