Wade --- End quote --- Um well I don't always do that, but I believe it is usually recommended to do so if you want a smooth finish. And yes by 'matt' I mean flat. We spell it that way in England ;) |

Minwah, So sometimes you attempt a perfectly smooth surface vs. the slightly textured surface created by a smooth foam roller? I can appreciate that. Wade |

I just like to start off with as smooth surface as possible, and then any 'unsmoothness' you finish with is down to the roller. I haven't done any proper top-coating to my cab yet, but I picked up an unusual (to me anyway) roller, which is supposed to give a very smooth finish. It is like a normal foam roller but with a thin surface of velvety stuff. I'm interested to see how it turns out... |
