Howdy

Quick follow-up... I opted to CP the whole section of decorative wrap including the open spaces of exposed blank... i was careful to wick away globs, blobs, puddles etc

The blanks is high gloss and i can see light brush marks from the CP.. will those go away under the epoxy when finish is applied or am i in troubled waters if i can see them before finish...

thanks and sorry for newbie question

What do you mean lite brush marks? As long as you wiped up the cp and you covered your thread and let it dry. You should be good to go.

The finish should make any brush marks on the blank in the CP invisible. Go for it!!
