    First coat of Uluru Red.



    Everything they say about the smell is true. Makes you want to drink the stuff.

    Do I have to wait 48 hours before another coat of Uluru Red or that's only when I move to the intensifier?
    Thanks

    Invest in an infra red heater/lamp. It speeds the curing process .

    The red looks great.
    As the others have said,let it cure. A lot of issues related to the use of DT seem to be around letting it cure

    ...or rather, not letting it cure.

    First coat on the neck. Wet seems it took the stain well. We'll see how it dries.


    Cheers
