    Hi Nightrider welcome to the forum. What kit are you planning/or building ?

    first thoughts are to sand the body/neck to about 320 grit, grain fill, wait to cure, sand to about 400 grit, then apply the satin finish. Going natural colour you could get a Dingotone colourless kit would do the job nicely
