    That's more than enough stain for a guitar. You can thin it with isopropyl alcohol or metho if you want.

    Yes, clear coat the neck then sand down and polish. You normally do the sides of the fretboard (but not the top of the fretboard) as well.

    Or sand down till flat and leave smooth with no polishing so that it doesn't stick to your hand
