Hello Hugh, hope the missus left the intensifier alone as that will help darken thing up a bit if that is what you are after.
On the 2 builds where I used DT ran out of stain and almost ran out of intensifier too. Luckily still had a bit of intensifier left to do a little touch up recently where I accidently sanded back to bare wood (ouch). Not quite the same depth of colour as the stain but if you add enough it gets close.
First layer of finishing coat reapplied.... fingers crossed
Yes, Wazkelly.. I still had some intensifier and applied 2 fresh coats after rubbing back..
Looking good Hugh!
cheers,
Gav.

Hey Hugh looking sweet it's interesting for me to see the staining process, my spalted les paul kit is currently in Perth waiting to be put on a plane.

Ok, so I know this is lame but I've still got a couple of finish coats and some steel wooling to do but I'm hanging out to see what it's gonna look like when it's together..
Looking forward to seeing it finished!!
yeh once you get through to near completion, you start getting itchy feet to see what it sounds like.
Hugh, that is a sexy beastie you've crafted. Loving the black on the red.
Awww man this just makes me more impatient for my spalted paulie to arrive!
Keep it up she's looking guuuud.

Yeah I totally hear you guys, I'm getting impaitent to see and hear it finished too!! That's why I resorted to just laying the whole thing out will the pick ups etc so I could at least get a look at how it will Basically look at then end.
I'm pretty happy with it.. think I'll nickname it "Jaffa" ..you know.. because of the colours.. =P
