There are several different products
and methods available for filling or darkening the grain on an ash shaft, this
is by far the easiest and most effective.
Quick Drying Time
Dries and can be sanded/re-applied usually
in around 30mins.
Hard wearing, won’t fall out!
This is solvent based and hard
wearing. It will penetrate, cling to and stay in the grain withstanding impact
far better than typical off the shelf grain fillers.
Easy to Sand
This solution is easy to layer for
deeper grains and also sands easily to achieve a smooth glass like finish over
the grain
Long Shelf Life
Stored air tight the mixture won’t
dry out or go off.
Application
Before starting WEAR GLOVES to avoid
skin contact and wear a face mask throughout, especially when sanding. Make
sure the cue is clean and sanded smooth to at least 1200 grit.
· Shake well before using a clean rag, fine brush or sponge to apply over the grain of the shaft
· Allow to dry before
sanding smooth again in stages from 300/400 grit up to at least 1200
· Re-apply additional
layers if required, for deeper grain fills and repeat the sanding as above (I’d
recommend 2000 for a final glass like finish)
· Finish with several
fine coats of cue finishing oil (see my other listings)
Drying times will vary and will
ultimately depend on your working environment. Clean brushes/sponges using methylated spirit.
