Rubbed Out Finish

Sep 29, 2003 4 Replies

I am attempting a rubbed out finish as described recently in the Finishing Line artice in FWW. The author describes a curing time of about 1 week. Does this apply to Flecto Clear Gloss? Do I really need to wait a week between each coat (6-8 coats in all) for the stuff to cure properly? Seems like a lot. 2 months to finish a small project is excessive.



Thanks In Advance, Bernie.


That's one week after the Final coat is applied, not each coat.

Why do you want to rub out the finish between coats? I suggest a light sanding to remove any flaws and provided a "tooth". Save the rubbing out for the final coat.
