Since I have tried the SLC covering for underlayment on planes, I have also thought maybe staining the bare wood of a plane and covering with the SLC. When seams are put down can't hardly see them let alone feel them. Having fun, DOC Holliday
Doc --
Great idea! I'll steal it, but not for this particular project. The SLC has to be a bullet proof and light solution, as I see it.
Since the SLC is (advertised, I haven't tried it) paintable / dopable, shouldn't be a problem no matter what you have in the adjoining areas.
I decided to do some other tests (already started), and start a new thread. Shoot, wish I had seen your suggestion first, I would have done the test differently. Ah well, I've never set up a test of anything that halfway through, I didn't say, "Well, I shoulda . . ."
