Hi Aiden,
I asked the same question to Dingobass (he created Dingotone) and it is currently untested. Maybe get a scrap bit of wood and test it?
Try the Dingotone top coats, they can harden as much as Acrylic can if you let it cure, even though the time to finish will take longer as it is completely natural.
Hi Aidan, best wait for Dingobass to answer this, there might be a clash but not sure as I've never tried this combination.
Most likely DB will just send you to the naughty room for asking the question haha.
As Keloooe suggested maybe apply couple of coats of Dingotone on scrap wood and see how the acrylic clear goes over it

No worries Aidan, hope the build goes well! What are you planning? You should start a build diary under the "My Build Diary" subforum so we can all keep up with the build and provide further help!
no worries Aidan, the forum is here to help out any questions you have.
Nice Angus Young avatar !

I will consider that!, i ordered a EX-1 with a bondi blue dingo tone stain, and planing to add a maple headstock veneer!

sounds like a good plan Aidan, look forward to the build diary.
Keep an eye out for the Australia Post van with any luck later this week or early next week

nice one Aidan, hopefully it does turn up Tuesday.
In the meantime look for some scrap wood to apply the bondi blue stain then try spray acrylic over.
