Hi, I'm wanting to use Dingotone to finish a body made from Pine. I purchased it from an eBay seller in the US. It's North American Eastern Pine.
My questions:
1) Do I need to use Sanding Sealer on the Pine body before I use Dingotone or can Dingotone's first coat go straight onto Pine (once it's been sanded to 400)?
2) I want to get close to Fender/Gibson pastel colours - TV Yellow or Sonic Blue. Are there Dingotone colours that are close to TV Yellow or Sonic Blue? Can Dingtone get close to Fender Vintage White or Surf Green?
3) I've watched the YouTube videos that demonstrate how to use Dingotone, they recommend 0000 steel wool between the intensifying coat and the finish coat, is this still the case or do people now prefer wet/dry paper to steel wool? Do I use this between each coast of finishing coat?
4) I live in Brisbane. Is there anything special I need to do due to humidity?
Thanks in advance.
