    EXPERT TIPS

    When applying Timbercote it is advised to use multiple thin coats rather than a few thick ones; expect to use almost an equal quantity of
    Thinner #45 (including cleaning up at the end of the day). The first two coats should require only half a day’s drying with a light sand between
    coats. After that, allow a full day between coats and only very light flour paper (and only if required).
