IPA or death Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 I sprayed my 4th coat of nitro yesterday and my mahogany back has little pores in it. I thought I had filled the grain well enough...guess I didn't though or how else could it have happened? Anyway, I was wondering what my options are. If I thin my next couple of coats, will it help level things out? Or should I drop fill all those little holes? Or whould I need to sand it down mostly flat and shoot some more coats of nitro? What would be the best course of action? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erikbojerik Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 If there are not that many (like a few in an area the size of your hand), I'd drop fill. But if its more than that, I'd level sand it a bit more and continue shooting. You may still want to thin it slightly (like 10-15%), just so that you don't run the risk of trapping a tiny air bubble in the pores by shooting a coat so thick that the air bubble won't rise up through the nitro.
