- the exact product FAMOWOOD® Glaze Coat®, which was found at Lowes of all places, it in a smaller quantity than I'd like, but the convenience of stopping by to buy more when I run out and not ordering it through a wholesaler and not dealing with the 25 to 50 dollar hazmart shipping fees..
- the manufacturer did recommend the 72 hr period, however that's dependant on air tempurature... SoCal weathers been good to me during the pouring process so far...
- I'm using White birch, I like how it holds a stain and how it looks after it's stained...
- I put on a thicker than recommended "sealing coat" because I'm planning on using serveral layers of expoxy to create a 3-d effect, inlaying pieces of old backgrounds and other pictures of plants into the different layers of epoxy. It will be a long process and a lesson in patients, bit should look amazing once completed
- to break up the bubbles, I used my MAPP torch lightly over the surface, takes them right out
- my pours are no thicker than 1/4 inch, closer to 1/8th of an inch
- I used the double pot method
thanks for the question Chris
