Left it for the better part of a week to let it 'cure'. Got some 320 wrapped around a short piece of dowel rod and it was working great, that was until I hit the soft centre. Little balls of firm and still un-cured poly suddenly erupted from under the offensive wave. I cleared them away as best I could and was left with a gaping trench that showed exactly how thick that last coat was. I resigned to the fact that this would become a scar and continued to sand around the trench to minimise the cliff faces. I also scuff sanded the whole build and then put on another very thin coat of poly.
While I pondered over the mess that I have made for myself I wondered if there was any way to cover it up, and interestingly I toyed with the idea of fitting a pick-guard. Not your normal thing for a PRS build, but a modified LP guard would substantially mask off this scar, effectively hiding it.... I have a few spare LP guards of various colours, so I'll keep that thought in reserve...
