Ron Altier Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 I turned a piece down and sanded to my satisfaction. Then I used my spray normal clear spray finish on it.......I forgot about the ultraviolet curing finish. NO problem. I used the UV stuff on top----that turned out to be a bad thing. The liquid did not flow evenly and hardened that way. It can still be sanded down but It did much better on a smooth sanded wood surface, it flowed evenly and dried that way. FlGatorwood, Fred W.

Gerald Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 That is interesting, What did the label say about surface prep? Maybe incompatible with the other finish . also [possible that the other finish has to be cured for a period of time before application of the ultraviolet finish.

Ron Altier Posted January 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 This finish is more of a grain filler finish and it does a good job. As you can see the label does not give a surface prep and assumes it is clean/dry wood only. It actually does a good job filling and as a final coat after hand sanding smooth on these small turnings. You can see on this piece that some more sanding will be needed and a finish coat. p_toad, FlGatorwood and Gunny 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Altier Posted January 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 (edited) I was not happy with the results when I misused this when I applied over my spray finish and had to remove it. It was softer than I thought and it came off easier than I had anticipated. Probably because I used it over my finish. I had good results when I used it over finely sanded wood. Rack this one up to experience or forgetfulness. I did have good results on raw, sanded wood. It sanded smoothly and a second coat came out great.
