lowe9 Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 I have grain filled the mahogany parts of my les paul. i followed the directions on the side of the can, thinning with mineral spirits, then waiting for it to dry a bit, then wiping it off against the grain. its been 5 hours or so, and there is a now a filmy white residue on the guitar which isn't really dry. can i wipe this off with mineral spirits, does it harden and then i can sand it off?

Drak Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 I believe the oil-based pore-filler needs to dry overnight, then sand it level. The water-based stuff dries really quick, like within an hour. PS, with oil-based filler, you're supposed to wait a week to ten days for all the solvent to evaporate before you apply any type of finish.
