just curious as to what you are using to sand the gesso(I know 1200 grit, just what type of paper-adalox?), and how many coats you ended up using? not sure if you ever said what the origional wood was. guessing european walnut.

-- Junior -Quality is never an accident-it is the reward for the effort involved.

I use 3D wet and dry, 20 coats of gesso and 13 coats of bole.
The wood is lime.
