Hi whirleybird, try not staining your next box. them wood grains turn out beautifully with plain urethane. just make sure that you dilute the paint and apply 2-3 *thin* coatings with light sanding in between. zolathane is diluted with paint thinner and it has a nice tint to it.
.Hi rajul,
OK I assume the paint shops know what ZOLATHANE is?
Well this kit had wood as white as a sheet and the color lable on the can of stain looked lighter then it was.
I worked with stains before but I had already built this box thinking it would be a real junker so I was not able to rub out the stain like I usually do.
Thanks for the info.
Really appreciated
