So i just finished my first project and I am pleased with it. Its a chest I made for my girlfriend and now its time to finish it. She has chosen the stain and a satin poly. I have already sanded to 220 the whole thing and now I am going to use a Pre-stain conditioner, then a cherry colored Gel-stain (applied with a foam brush). Once that is dry I want to use a Satin Poly that is brush on (applied with a Natural brissled brush).
So that is my game plan. Please let me know if that is ok or what. Im definately open for suggestions. I don't have any HVLP, so im using brushes. Here is the pic of the chest.
