don't go any further than 400 grit BG or the surface grain will be so polished the pores won't take as much stain.
Have to call you the sanding man fan! hahah

The Darkine has taken very well, the Bondi Blue is not how I'd expected- but let's see how it cures.
One thing I notice using DT for the first time, woods like ash positively DRINK it! I was quite surprised as I remember Wudtone being more viscous. But that could be my ailing memory, as it's been a while...
Looking forward to seeing how it cures over the next 5 days. 😃😃
looking good BG, I haven't tried bondi blue on ash but tarkine went well with a bit of yellow in the natural ash grain.
How good is the smell ! smells very natural.
It's likely the stains will darken a little as they cure.
More coats and the colour will further deepen
Can't judge the smell, my nose is blocked!
I am very intrigued how it goes and certainly won't be rushing.
The Bondi will need a few coats to get the intensity.
I cant spike it any further as there is a limit to how much pigment can be added to the mix.
Just remember to shake the crapola out of the bottle each time you take some out as the pigment will settle out rather quickly.....
It's getting more intense, I am convinced of it!
That looks really cool BG!
sweet job BG
coming along nicely BG !
Tell you what, the DT has worked fantastically on this ash piece. Very tasty looking
