    Hey Andy, I was surprised too as that funkiness only happened to me after 3rd or 4th intensifier which were sitting on top of 4 or 5 base stain coats.

    It was always one step forward and two steps backward for from that point hence why I switched to something else for the top coats otherwise I may still be trying to finish them off.

    Thanks guys, it's had nearly 2 weeks,I'm going to give it another while i fiddle with the FrankenWashie control cavity, LP and Sv base coast and some routing templates for the TL1-TH. I'll assess and do the wet sand and see what happens then.

    Right! Bumpy bits no knocked back. 1st intensifier on.

    It's gone an intense inky black which I am loving. see below:

    We shall see how that cures and make some more decisions from there. One thing I have noted is that it will seemingly be much darker on the front faces than the sides and back, this is assuming that it doesn't become more translucent in curing. We shall see how it all goes.

    @Andy40, @wazkelly, Thanks for the advices boys, much appreciate the assistance.

    Certainly a lot blacker. You're really getting into Dedman territory here!

    Looking good Frankie. Just need to be patient with the curing time now the weather is starting to get cooler.
