    It's amazing how good a few zaps with the rattle can can look, just by applying the lessons learned in the jarrod clear coating academy:

    Part 1: https://youtu.be/IlJs-JCKRKE
    Part 2: https://youtu.be/yEoqbB5E8vg

    This approach works just as well with rattle can acrylic as for spray equipment. Can't thank Jarrod enough for these lessons!!

    cheers,
    Gav.

    So roughly your process was:
    1. Stain

    2. Clear Acryllic

    3. Ultimate Compound.
