i have tried rattle cans. As someone said above little and often with light sanding between coats is essential. I love making guitars and now have a pile that need finishing. I avoid finishing as a) I...

@robin I'm going to try the aquacoat grain filler (it's quite pricey, but it's the only clear one I can find). Another possibility might be adding microballoons to some carrier, which I've seen Chris ...

I see you've got solvent based poly, then you can try a wipe-on poly finish. I've used this method with great success a number of times and I'm currently using it on my new project, the wannabee Exoti...

@jonhodgson No, it wasn't a full can, there wasn't a lot in it. The piece of ash is an offcut from the body that I've got ready for finishing. Yes, I raised and sanded the grain, then filled the grai...

@robin Cool. Was that a full can? It seems a little excessive for what doesn't look like a particularly big piece. I've got some ash and maple plank offcuts coming to test on (I'm just getting started...

@jonhodgson I'll be watching for your test results worh interest, I'm doing a similar thing but in a much limited way. I've carved a bit of ash, sanded to 320 grit and applied grain filler and stain....

@russ Yep, one of there classics. It is probably their most recognisable and popular song that non Maiden or metal fans would know. And, any self respecting Maiden and metal fan would enjoy it anywher...

Very topical in these times. I'd not even considered that !!! 😯

This is worth 1'38" of your Friday time @tv101. I do like a bit of Vaccines. Very topical in these times. 😂 🎸🙂🙏🎶

New to me but I'm lovin'it. New to me too @Russ - that's an odd one. Mind, kids today, don't know how lucky (etc). They should be in a squat somewhere, not a seafront rented flat in Brighton Ƕ...

OK @russ if we are onto AC/DC then this is one of my all time favourites. Not bad @boo. I know this one because it was a single but I haven't listened to much after "For Those About To Rock". I hear...
