super badass mate, awesome job
I did about 8 or so really light coats, let it dry for a week, sanded with 1200 and then hit it with 2 more light sprays. Worked out pretty well. Its been played heaps and knocked around a little and has held up better than I expected.

I'm just as stunned (stunged?) by your progress as when I got stung on the fingertip by a paper wasp last week.
That made me sit up and take notice - so has this outstanding effort.
Keen to see more progress . . .
love your profile pic Maxxy, looks like you got a giant moustache. Proudly worn for Movember

Ask, and ye shall receive, Wokka.
Coat 4 is on, photos will be up shortly.
Also, for those of you looking for a nice, satin (or gloss) finish that won't blow the bank, I cannot recommend this enough. Goes on so well, 2 hr touch dry, 6 hr recoat, and $11.50 a can is pretty jolly good (I'll get close to 5 or 6 coats out of one can!).
