This picture has kindly been sent by Boris Radovskiy from the USA. The
walnut and cherry he has used for his tea caddy create a staring
contrast that attracts the attention. In this box has preferred removing the
motto, instead the six faces of the caddy are identical. |

He has used Padauk and maple for this excellent result. About the
finish, he wrote me: ¨ It is finished with three coats of Polyurethane Semi Gloss. I use a Sata spray gun for many Fret projects. It does not over fill in small lines, is fast, even and will not run, if applied properly. I spay a first sanding sealer coat of Poly diluted ever so little with mineral spirits. This dries faster and penetrates more. Let dry for a day or more then sand. I like sanding pad. Apply second coat of Poly, wait about half hour, but not longer than tacky and spray the third coat. The third coat will chemically combine with the first, but not enough to cause running.
This link to Sata spray guns
explains all the adjustments and specs. The minijet 4 HVLP is expensive, but has many virtues inexpensive guns just can not match for the type of work we do.
