Hello
I am trying to overcome my fear of CA finishes so I had been practicing on a few scape pieces of wood to improve my technique and yet I still am having troubles.
Here are a few questions that I have for all of you...
1. Which CA do you prefer (thin, med., thick or combination)?
2. How much pressure do you use when applying CA?
3. How long do you usually rub (apply) the CA to the blank?
4. How do you prevent fibers or debris from ending up on the finish?
Now here is what I do and use for finishing with CA.
1. I use med. CA for about 3-4 coats. Need to purchase thin CA.
2. I quickly and gently apply a thin to med layer (about 3-4 drop of CA).
3. I use blue shop towels to apply with as mentioned in previous threads.
What should I be doing or using differently?
Thanks for you assistance
