General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: Poly finish...HELP!
« on: June 16, 2010, 09:51:23 pm »
That is why I use lacquer it dries quick even over lemon oil. I have had that same problem with poly. But, I think if you wait it out it will dry.

I bought some of those last year and discovered, just as you have, they are too thick to use on a Dewalt blade holder. They seemed like such a good idea too. I bought some popsicle sticks at Michaels and glued various grades of sand paper to the sticks. I cut one end of the sticks to a point to reach in places better. I may have gotten that idea from one of Steve's videos. They DO work but of course you still have to sand by hand. Live and learn.

I recently bought some of the Krylon spray but have not had time to use it. It is less expensive than other spray finishes so I hope it works as well. I still use Spray lacquer. It dries faster than anything I have tried. You can sand down the grain after only ten minutes and put on another coat. As Joe said all the sprays are going to smell and you have to have a well ventilated area. Thank goodness for nice weather when you can spray outside. I will try the Krylon but the lacquer is hard to beat.

Nice work. How do you like your Kreg jig? I got one for Christmas last year and I love using the pocket holes. When I get some time I want to make a window seat in an upstairs bedroom.
