Hi
I used your Glass Coat Epoxy two part for the restoration of my classic car dashboard.
It worked well.
First coating - bought up some fibres from the new veneer. Sand and second coat - perfect, until someone (probably me) opened a door and dust settled on the second coat creating small dimples.
Can I sand this and finish with a varnish - something like a yacht varnish? I don't want to add a further coat or the finish will make the coating look too deep.
Guy

Yes you can do that. Alternatively sand off the dust dimples then work back up the grits to 1500 again and polish it back to a high gloss.

Thanks Warren - that might be easier. What polishing compound would you recommend? Its my first time on doing this. Your product works really well - it could catch on for dashboard wood.

EC's NW1 cutting compound is far and above the best product I've ever used.
