Waz's MMB-4

[Fretworn]

Progress shots......nearly there with another glassy finish. Maybe another week or so of applying 2 coats then light wet sand several times to bring it home.

Anyone else have a sudden craving for a glazed donut?...

Nice and glossy!

Looking good, Waz.

Excellent Waz, you've nailed the finish once again.

Cheers Guys.

On builds 1 through to 4 this would have been good enough but I am happy taking my time building up the layers and hope to be able to replicate same look achieved on Build # 5, the Swampy.

When applying coats it has an almost butterscotch appearance on the end grain sections whilst still wet and hoping a few more coats brings a bit of that out.

Love those wood tones, Waz!

Where have you been Swanny? Good to hear from you again.

That's looking gorgeous there Waz

Thanks Deddy.

Did 1500 W & D on neck last night and 1200 W & D on body. Another 50:50 ragged coat on both tonight and starting to look almost done. Maybe one more week of 2 coats ragged x 1 wet sand repeating as I work my way up to 2000 grit. Thankfully weather hasn't been too hot or humid and each layer has gone on just fine.

I think the finish may have had enough time to cure????

Didn't realise I hadn't touched this build for best part of 5 months and found a few spare hours to work on it earlier today. Very light 2000 W&D wet sanding followed by light micro mesh pads, Meguiars, Brasso, and Nu Finish as each of those three polishes does something just a little bit different to one another....
