Default RE: Sig Koverall

Thanks for the quick response!

I probably should have let the fill coats dry longer before reapplying.
A subsequent coat applied later this morning seems to have flowed and evened out the areas I was worried about.

I did use the ModPodge to "seal" the wood ("Base coat, sanded" step) by brushing an undiluted coat over all exposed wood and allowing to dry.
As you can see from my numbers, the way I did this added as much weight to the part as the fabric itself.
What technique do you use to control the amount of absorption when sealing? Should I wipe it on/off with a rag instead?

I appreciate the guidance,
