One more time, singlecut

I described this elsewhere, however the way I do it is to rub the grainfiller in and start to buff it off against the grain direction before it sets up fully. When I start on the SG, I'll photo it and then video it for the one after.

I've always used the filling rubber (?) (we call it "muñequilla") in circles, but yeah, also gave some passes against the grain direction as you said... :D  

This time I've made a more liquid mix and it worked much better, so this is while rubbing...

This is how it looks almost dried...

And this is after sanding...

It looks quite light but everything blends as soon I apply some mineral spirits...

I should give another pass but man, that was hard work... it filled the holes at 50%, hope the nitro does the rest.  :blush

Now it's ready for the nitro finish... sanded, masked and cleaned everything... just need to buy solvent and a brush.

Cheers
