To achieve a smooth and mirror like finish on open grained woods, you should use a grain filler. In this video I show you how to use the grain filler from Aqua Coat.
- Sand the surface to 150 grit using my orbital sander
- Apply a seal coat of dewaxed shellac to two of the 3 sample boards
- Apply stain/dye to the third sample board. When the stain/dye dries, apply a coat of dewaxed shellac.
- Using a plastic spreader, apply a very thin coat of Aqua Coat grain filler, wiping off the excess across the grain. Let it dry for 45 minutes to an hour.
- After the first coat of grain filler dries, sand the surface with 320 grit sandpaper.
- Apply 2 more coats of grain filler the same way as described above and let it dry.
- Apply your top coat of choice.
