Denatured alcohol if you don’t already have some. For wiping down the blank and between coats. Looks pretty good to me. Oh, and basic stuff like gloves, tape.
Oh, and make sure the paper mixing cups aren’t the ones with wax.
Apparently wax is bad. I’ve always used the plastic ones I get from boat stores, so I haven’t had a problem.
As for tape, I just use the blue 3M painters tape, and it seems to hold up pretty well. It will ocassionally bleed through, but I have a feeling that it’s because I use the slow hardener, so expecting the tape to hold up for 6 hours before the board cures is ridiculous. If you’re using the fast hardener I don’t think it should be a problem.
Hicksy,
She just got back from being out of town for a couple of weeks, so I haven’t been able to ask her if I can shape more boards. Although I have a feeling she’ll say yes.
