It's always hard to apply just a light pressure in cutaways and on the shoulders of curves. You have to use your fingers, you can't use a block. So as you said, more coats would seem to be the answer. But do make sure you are soaking the wet 'n' dry for a day beforehand. It really does make sanding curves easier as the softer paper matches the curve so much better.

Ok great thanks for the advice. I wasn't using a block in the test on the LP, just fingers. I have seen mixed comments about soaking the wet and dry for a day or so but I'll give it a try again.

Will do a few more coats anyway because I seem to be a bit heavy handed in sanding.

Cheers,
