I though I'd share a fun moment at our warehouse with you.
Some of the guys at work wanted to make a workbench out of some scrap wood we had laying around so I told them to go ahead and do it. Then they complained that the junky factory yellow primed particle board was a pain to clean and asked if I could clear it for easier clean up. I started to go on a 3 mile journey to Home Ripoff for a paint brush when I figure it was worth the gas. I taped the edges with duct tape, made a squeegee out of 2 wooden paint sticks and poured on our new 4:1:1 clear.
What you see is what you get after it dried though if you look close enough you can see it gassed a little because it was poured on in single coat over and un-sealed surface. The proper way would have been to first apply/brush/spray a 'normal' coat, walk away for 30 min allowing it to seal off the wood then pour the clear. Then again I'm not running This Old House either.
Eat your heart out Villa!:evil LOL
