    Like the finish on this looks great. Yes definitely replace the tea towel if your household is anything like mine tea towels are for collecting and not for their intended purpose...! I'm always in the dog house for using them during my various diy projects...

    A few more pictures and bit more progress. Rattle cans for the clear coat, about 10 or 12 coats and then left it for about a week to cure. During that time I broke my foot and have been off work, so perfect timing to get it flat and cut ready for a polish.

    Breaking your foot just to work on a build... that's commitment.
