Good to see someone in South East Qld finally turn out a good looking DT finish as I had seriously lost faith that it could ever be pulled off.
Thanks Waz. yeah the key is the thin coats.
I started applying DT stain between March and May 2016 where the humidity averages high and low were roughly between 53% and 95%. In March it spent more time at the higher end and now it spends more time around the 55% mark.
Dayum Son. Very noice 😁
Just in case anyone wants to see the contrast between the wet coat and 24 hours later, I thought i'd post some piccys.
So this is the result you can achieve with DT MkI after 3 thin finish coats using my technique. I have not buffed or polished the guitar in anyway.
