That is unreal, an LP Tiger! Great work, absolutely love the way that top has come out, you've got to be chuffed with that.

Stunner of a top. That will look sweet with a deep clear

Thanks for all the encouraging comments guys.....now for the poll....

Do i go with Naughty Oil (Sorry, DB) or do i try wipe on Poly.......

Your thoughts......

Cheers Bluesmartyboy

Wow, that colour combo in the figure looks amazing! My advice is TO 100%. It will pop the grain even more than it is already. I have personally used Wipe on Poly as a final protective coat over TO, but definitely use TO.

cheers,
Gav.

Hey Bluesy I don't have any experience with wipe on poly but TO will give it a nice gloss

Thanks Wokka and Gav.....

I really do not want to stuff this up as i do believe i have scored myself a pretty special piece of wood....

Would you do a few neat coats of TO followed by a wet sand to pore fill then repeat the coat and wet sand route and if so, what grade of wetndry and is it the Wet n'dry they sell in the green warehouse of much naughtiness adequate.......

+1 for the TO
