Hi all , I’m a good way through my first build having dealt with all the usual learning curve dramas including sand back and starting again more than once. Any way I thought I’d post a tip for using wipe on poly that I worked out through trial and error and also having read so many people complain it’s no good on the forum.
I started off with the same problems but now I think it’s great. Couple of tricks;
1. Wipe it on with a folded piece of chux style cleaning cloth;
2. Load the cloth with the poly (wet but not dripping);
3. Do a single pass of just overlapping straight lines.
4. Don’t go back over any of it. If there’s a problem sort it on the next coat
5. If find it best if the body is flat so I do the back and front as alternative coats and the sides every coat.
I haven’t polished or anything yet but this is how it looks at this point
