Guides re-spacing & re-wrapping
Posted by: Pawel Sulek (212.160.172.---)

Hi

I want to wrap new guide to the rod and change the spacing. Do I have
to remove old finish to wrap the guides to the blank? Or should I
simply put the guides on the finish and wrap them? Any good idea about
dealing with "holes" in the finish after replacing?

Thanks

Pawel

Pawel Sulek - Do yourself a favor and read this recent Post. Check out those Articles by ROQ, and see what lies ahead. Try & See if a quick scrape & touch-up job is is all you need, ... or the more elaborate re-finish. -Cliff Hall+++
