henry4841 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 I thought Klipsch speakers were sprayed with lacquer and not an oil finish. I quit using those can fillers years ago preferring to make my own filler with the same wood sawdust of the product and wood glue. Easy to get right sawdust from a piece of scrap, in this case oak wood, with an electric sander that catches the dust. Mix with glue and apply. No better match that I know of. Not perfect, one can still notice if picky enough but in most cases not noticeable from a reasonable distance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilkic65 Posted July 13, 2023 Author Share Posted July 13, 2023 I was thinking of spraying both stain and poly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forte's have nice thick veneer. Get some scrap oak (very little is all that is needed) and cut with a razor into thin pieces that are thicker than the space to be filled. You may need to soak it. Cut the pieces to size but a little thick and glue in place, then sand down to match the veneer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
