Hey all, Im currently refinishing a guitar with tru-oil.. its working really well, very pleased with the results so far.
The problem is, as I build the finish and its getting more depth & shine im finding it hard when applying coats because I just cant see where its gone onto the body! I have find myself missing small areas, being a bit of a perfectionist It really bugs me! Also, when I use steel wool or 2000grit to smooth between coats it leaves marks on the finish which go when I apply the next layer, but Im a bit concerned about finishing the final coat! I have been leaving 8-12 hours between coats so far.
Any tips by experienced users of Tru-oil would be pretty awesome, thanks!
