Hi There,
I had a problem after the 4th first coats of Tru-Oil applied with my gloves directly.
One of the last coat, I have put too much and didn't wiped even properly so i could see drips once dry....
So i removed (gently) all drip marks with 400 grit and finish with 1500, blown with air and clean with tack cloth.
Applied 4 coats of Tru-Oil with a clean cloth rolled in another cloth that i secure with a tie-wrap.
Every 5 coats i wet sand with 1500 grit to even the layers and so far it seem to work fine.
I completed over 10 coats and can definitely see the oil starting to build up.
The biggest challenge so far have been the headstock decals....
I wanted a custom water decal and did many unsuccessful trials prior to have it right.
It's the "Packing tape over printer paper, bathed into warm water for 20 minutes" that finally got a "ok" result.
More to come,
