Not really. Been awhile since i used it. I take you steel wooled between coats, from what i remember, once dry its like doing CA.
light grit sanding till all the shiny stuff is gone, then polish. I aways bought the kit , cause everything comes with it.
Micro mesh would be perfect.
Micro-mesh, I have. So you can smooth it out and polish it? Some Maas?Quote:

It is between 1/32" but just under 1/16". Like Johnny Cash sung, cry, cry, cry..............:cry::cry::cry:Quote:

I'm in bed with a cold so no workshop for me, wife's orders.. :( she threatened to make me go shoe shopping with her... for the love of God not that!
I'm trying to find some blades that will do for this thread because I don't have many trashed one's. I agree with Mike B52 that we should stay on topic, I had been one of those that strayed.. don't worry Mike I'll find some thrashed one's to fix up! :)
Now come on guys give me some pics and reading!

It's not a flippin loss, just another obstacle. Look at it as a test of patience and endurance.
DON'T YOU DARE!!! Give up hope.
I've taken some time today and finished the scales for shorty.
I also changed my mind on the finish. I've once again gone wth CA , "only" because i cracked one of the scales being stupid.
Off to the track, in hope's of no failures.
