Just wanted to let anyone who read my previous post regarding my frustration with color fill that I have got the process licked!
Here are the revised steps-
- paint or stain wood
- apply clear coat
- cover with application tape (12" application tape was $40 for 300 ft)
- VIGOROUSLY rub/burnish
- laser
- check to make sure none of the tape has curled up
- 5 minute clear sealer over cut areas
- spray paint
95% success rate (times that I forgot the clear sealer had some bleed into adjacent wood grain.
/the application tape was obtained from a local signs xpress shop, used for applying vinyl letters to things/
