Another Mopar Off My Bucket List - Barracuda Fastback
Top side coated. It seems as though the wood is absorbing some of the varnish which is good. It loses it's sheen as it dries (or evaporates). It took 12 ounces of varnish combined with 4 ounces of thinner for this first coat. I will try to put on the second coat Tuesday afternoon. The smell isn't too bad. I was concerned that the fumes might drive us out of the house . I've been running the exhaust fan that's in the basement bathroom to help. The room I'm working in is isolated from the furnace so I'm not concerned with a flame hazard.
