    Thanks guys!
    The wipe on poly should give it a yellow ish tint based on my test, but I actually like this, will make it look a bit vintage.

    After two days that's four coats you've put on. You must be getting pretty warm by now!

    Crickets are a big step up from the normal tumbleweed. I must be improving.

    One thick one normally suffices. Actually the further north you go, the less people seem to wear coats. In Newcastle, if it starts to snow, people start to think about changing from a T-shirt to something with long-sleeves on.

    But not always, especially if young and female.

    Man, I leave this thread unattended for 1 week and it's gone fully off topic! :-)

    I do prefer laying coats on guitars than on me though... I haven't gone through a European winter for 13 years now and I'm definitely not missing that!
