I have a one question? Why refinish a piano?
It should not be stripped except by the piano maker. . . and by the time you start talking about that, you're better off shopping for another piano.

You only change the lacquer because it was done incorrectly. It's generally vital to the sound.
I don't disslike a laquered one just think a matte finish is kinda
less formal

I've not sat down to do an A-B comparison. Unfortunately, there were other more important things dictating the sound (frame, wood, hammer type/touch) than the lacquer.
