That's after 4 coats, looking a bit deeper now, going to go for a couple more before the top-coat, even though I want to bolt it all together
You've got to dab it on heavily to get a solid finish, but then you'll end up with an orange peel look. I did a body in white and it was a disappointment. Hard work, slow and crappy looking, so it's coming off soon.

The 'rub on' translucent finishes look good I think; it's just the solid ones that are disappointing, in that they're not like the finishes shown on the Wudtone page. The process isn't simply a case of rubbing on the product (like Tru Oil), but rather a lengthy dabbing process that is tricky to do and ends up looking (in my case) less than average.

I found the Crimson stains a *lot* easier to use with more reliable outcomes.
The orange peel effect will probably never go though.
As I say, the transparent kits look good and his neck kits are great, it's just the solid ones that are a bit misleading I feel.

Your life will improve when you realise it’s better to be alone than chase people who do not really care about you. Saying YES to happiness means learning to say NO to things and people that stress you out.

Darkened it a little, but still nowhere near the translucent black I was after. Wudtone's repeated 'I think it looks awesome' really didn't help.
