Hi John, sorry for the late response. I have not played since the last time that Chucj=k and I were @ McQ'S. Going north again in January, and living in west Seattle. How have you been? I changed my number, new one is 509-995-1385. I hope all is well...
I use 4 coats of G5 applied every 3 minute to form a monolithic epoxy substrate that can be flat sanded aggressively with 220 to level, then 320 to leave an even scratch coat for the clear.
The clear coat of PPG Concept Clear and that price does includes the reducer and hardener.
I have been buy mine at Car Quest and I saw it on line a little cheaper but I am sure the shipping will make it pretty close.
I am interested in your cue cabinets. Do you have any currently available in oak with a medium stained finish? I'm looking for something for ten cues or so.
