I used SP systems eposeal, which is a heavily thinned penetrating epoxy primer. But the smallest available quantity is about 50UKP, and is enough for about a thousand fretboards.

Thanks for the info. I’m located in the US and that product doesn’t look like it’s readily available here.Originally Posted by JimC
Ok, let’s switch back to Simon’s CA idea. What about this stuff?

It looks like it’s somewhat slow drying and comes with that brush. I don’t think it would take more than 15 minutes to “paint” an entire engineered rosewood board with the stuff.
That is what we’re discussing, right? Gluing this flaky “engineered” stuff together so it doesn’t come apart. It seems the super glue idea makes sense.
I have heard you don’t want to inhale that stuff so I’d be wearing a respirator before I began “painting” the board.
I’ve never done this before but what’s the procedure? Coat the board with the CA superglue then buff with steel wool and you’re done?
