Finishing continues


I have brushed on five coats of KTM-9. It is looking good. I used the fine foam brushes as they leave less bubbles on the finish. It seems hard to have a continual whole day to apply the finish, so I have to apply two to three coats per day. I sand in between the days as recommended. The stuff dries fast. One hour between coats. This is an amber stained neck. The maple is simple hard rock maple, but with the amber stain, I managed to get some figure out of it. I like the amber. It's Stew Mac stain mixed with denatured alcohol, applied right on the raw wood.
