    The project is progressing - up to 10 coats of TO on body and neck/fretboard already

    1. I have kept the binding quite clean but it still has some TO on it. I assume it needs to be scrapped of as it does not stick well to the binding?
    2. Once scrapped should a do a light sand on binding to clean it up?
    Typically the top coat is applied over the binding. The slight amber tint of Tru Oil is more noticeable on white binding, but I'm reasonably confident it would not be with black.
    Binding is only scraped (typically) if a colour coat of paint or stain has been applied over it. Revealing the colour of the binding, then clear coated.

    EDIT: Sorry I said "top coat over the finish" - I meant binding! Have corrected now... Hopefully you understood what I meant .
