Fantastic job on the 621, Crist :yes:.
Do you make your own waterslide decals or buy them somewhere? Where do you buy the Mohawk stains in liquid form, not sprays. I like the way your colors match so well.

Ed, the decals are from Radio Daze.
I get the stains from a local hardware store called Elliot's.
Thanks for the kind words.

Be careful not to sand or rub through to the gloss or you'll have shiny spots. Also semigoss is made by adding a fine particulate to gloss. If its uneven in thickness, you can get an uneven sheen. Another option is to only use gloss and control the sheen by rubbing it out with a courser grit

Amazing work! It is so shiny I think I need sunglasses to look at it.:smoke:

There are probably some scarred little 50's-60's German stereo consoles cowering in a corner somewhere furiously rubbing furniture wax on each other "Ack, rub harder vee are still not shiny enough to stand next to it!". :D

Excellent, Crist!
