Gloss or Satin?
#4

Kokomo, eh? Convenient for you since IHRS holds their largest meet of the year every spring right there in your town. Icon_smile Now, I'm down here in southern Indiana - the true southern Indiana, not what the idiots in the central part of the state call "southern" Indiana (Bloomington, Nashville, Columbus). Those in Indianapolis consider us to be part of Kentucky except when it comes time to collect taxes. Icon_wink

The temperature is supposed to get up into the 60s this weekend here in my part of the state. I actually sprayed lacquer last Saturday with the temperature around 57, and it worked out OK.

Yes, many collectors prefer satin or semi-gloss. I've been using semi-gloss on table models but I'm tempted to put the high gloss on the 42-761EZ that I spent a lot of the summer working on.
