hi guys,

I have a strat kit which i am finishing in dingo tone stain. i have stained the body several times, applied several intensifying coats and am now applying some finishing coats....inbetween the finishing coats i am lightly rubbing the body with steel wool as per instructions...i bought a magnet to attract off any of the steel wool filings before the next finishing coat but the steel wool is sticking to the body....also the body has little build ups of stain on it by the looks of it its not totally smooth..

i have some 1200grit sand paper could i lightly sand the body then apply more final coat then repeat the process until its smoother and the steel wool fibres are removed?

any feedback is greatly appreciated thanks guys.
