tiger wrap question ?

I have read where some people will use mono to see the final outcome of the wrap, can you leave the mono and put the finish over it wouldn't that be easier then taking the sacrificial thread off ?

Yes and no. Mono isn't clear once you apply finish to it. The overall look will change.

Thank you I have seen those articles, I guess I was just trying to alleviate a step of taking off the sacrificial thread so the last thread will stay true to the wrap .I have seen pics of the Kaleidoscope Wrap they do use mono but cover it with shrink wrap .
