: Hi Bill,

: For the Azure I applied three coats over two days: First in the AM, the
: second in the PM, with the last the next morning. I thought it sanded
: fine. I even sanded between coats with some 180 to knock off the brush
: strokes. It's not easy but it is possible. I was able to sand and polish
: it to a satin sheen after a few days. I used MAS resin, about 5% aerosil
: and 15% hBN.

Hi Dan,

You must have had much better coverage with the hBN than I had with the graphite. The coats were at best translucent. By the 4th coat it was pretty black, by the 5th coat it was opaque. I was told by Robert that it wouldn't sand so didn't try Btw, I rolled all the coats and didn't polish. Perhaps the hBN goes in suspension easier than the graphite? I used a graphite silica mixture though at this point I don't remember the percentages.
