    Cleaned headstock face with metho after that sand. Applied three very light mists at 10.minute spacings. Looking much better. Seems very smooth. I have also sprayed with the headstock face vertical this time. Previously the the headstock face was lying flat on a table ie I was spraying onto a horizontal surface I think vertical may help. Not sure. Also, I suspect my original idea of a light mist / light dry coat was actually an over heavy wet coat ! I will leave for 24 hours now and try another light coat tomorrow. Do not want to end ip having to sand too much because the veneer is so thin at the edges -so probably better to take it really slow.
