Giving the mahogany a tint of red.


Here is after shooting 3 coats of the Red Mahogany translucent dye mixed with 75% lacquer 25% lacquer reducer. I mixed 3 drops of the dye to 8 ounces of the lacquer mix.
I am now removing the masking.
Now I have to radius the outside corner of the binding and finish with 8+ coats of clear lacquer wet sand and buff it out to a mirror finish.

After looking at this picture I should have wiped the sunburst down before taking the picture. very dusty.
