If you want to get even a slight nod of approval from the Zen Varnish
Masters, you have to get up to 600 grit wet-sanding.

A true Master of Sen Vanishing would use 800 grit which lasts about
one stroke. :)

OOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.........


Oh, sure, raise the ante. But I said "to get a nod from the Zen
Masters," not to become one.

I've used 1200 grit wet, and if you use a drop of dishwashing soap in
the sanding water bucket, it doesn't clog. Produces a finish about as
smooth as polished marble.

I've known people that used a non-wax rubbing compound (2000 grit?
2400?) prior to final coat(s) but that seems a bit over the top to me.
But then I'm not claiming to be a Zen Master myself. For one thing, I
can't meditate over my brushes....
