BKeys Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Silly question. Would you add a finish coat before carving or wait until everything is done. Seems silly but it seems to me on one of the many videos I watched...they did a coat first. Asking because I'm under the gun for my wife's birthday present and haven't decided for sure if I'm doing the carving...would be nice to have it done if I decide not to (practice carving comes out bad) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drzaius Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 If it's all to receive the same finish, I'd carve then finish. If the carved out relief portions are to be a different color, then finish first, carve, & then finish the relief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
