Very nice indeed.
What was the topcoat that you were spraying?
I think that I recall a few years ago that you were making spectraply ornaments, and the profits were going towards your teardrop trailer fund.
Did you get your trailer?

A few questions
When you were putting in the color in a bowl were you mixing two colors?
Also were you spraying was it lacquer or shellac?
Also wondering if I did it I could mix color and shellac at the same time which will both add color and seal it in or is that not a good idea.
Also thinking I could use a lot of small branches to do the same thing off of different trees?
As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification. Thank You Everyone.
It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

Thanks all
Arlin, the color is dye and the finish is Deft lacquer. I don't think you can tint it with what I use
