Not sure if AA have applied any top coat, it just looks like polished walnut to me, applying a few coats of CCL oil does appear (to me) to have brought out the colour and grain a bit... see photos https://preview.ibb.co/bA5Hca/AA_s410_TDR_walnut_oiled2.jpg https://preview.ibb.co/n5Bqxa/AA_s410_TDR_w...
