Hi Preston..Welcome to the forum. I love your box...is that finish lacquer or mirror coat? I am working on a similar box and was thinking of using mirror coat (system 3) to fill in around the scrolled work.

Hi Tocaone , thanks for the comment on the box.. I am not familiar with mirror coats. I use Minwax Fast-Drying Polyurethane Clear Gloss. I put multiple coats, sanding between each coat with a 220 or finer grit paper. Then before the final coat I use 0000 steel wool.. After that, if I can see my reflection almost good enough to shave or better, I am happy ;D !!
