My pleasure. Thanks a lot for watching.

Two coats of sanding sealer have been applied. Now the serious sanding can begin.

Have you found when sanding the sealer that the heat from the friction when sanding seems to melt or I go like a wax?

I sure did. I noticed it flaked off the paper fairly easily but I think I went through paper faster than usual when cutting through the initial layer - it would clog up pretty fast.

I suppose that when this is used in more typical cases it would get cut back with 80 grit paper using a sander so would not be as noticeable.

Supapuffin let me know how you find the Wicked Witch Nitro. I've been looking at their tinted clear for my TL neck.

Hi Andy - thanks so much for the kind comments - I have been working up to applying the grain filler so will see how it looks from there.

Suppapuffin,

How much would you or did you sand back the grain filler?
I’ve put 3 coats on mine now, then lightly and slowly used 1200 grit to make sure I didn’t over heat the grain filler. It feels really smooth, now wondering if I should start the primer.

Cheers
