Yes Wendy, as you know by now.....lots of sanding, and yes, they all get sealed with either a Matte, semi gloss, or gloss Spar varathane coat or two, sometimes four.... lightly sanding or wooling between coats. Some Plaques Some Newbs! Thank you for browsing! Mahalo! McTiki Tis a brave man who wears the kilt in January. [ Edited by: McTiki 2011-08-05 14:29 ] [ Edited by: McTiki 2011-08-05 14:34 ]
