Got a problem making the face white; Minwax "Pickled Oak", their whitest stain, just doesn't work. Fan palm is not what it was designed for, shall we say. Will try a test with thinned-down white paint, but I wanna finish it with that Zizzner Amber Shellac, and it may not work. That's what's fun with this Tiki stuff; crazy combinations of crap. On the Shellac can it says not to sand between coats, but that's exactly what I'm gonna do in spades. Anyway, OkiDoki is lookin' way better after GETTING BUZZED.
