Never attempt to finish with a brush, rag or finger with "finish" on it! art
Art, I'm not understanding that line. Do you mean don't try to do a complete
final finish that way, but plan to rub it out instead?
I understand all the principles you have stated, but I still have a hard time getting a good rubbed out finish. It always seems to turn out uneven, and with some rub-throughs. Like I said earlier, it's achieving uniformity that gives me fits.
Maybe I'm not getting it thick enough (I do allow plenty of cure time), but if the finish gets too thick it still looks sort of plastic, albeit rubbed out plastic.
Maybe my goal is too lofty, or maybe I'm just an old fumble-fingers.
Not ready to give up, though.
