Default RE: i need some help

1. I use Size A for almost everything. Once in a while, I'll use Size D.



2. No; you don't have to use a dryer on Flexcote. You do have to turn while curing. I use an alcohol burner to warm the bubbles out after setting.



3. Marbling is just putting a coat of epoxy or paint down then dripping different color paints(pigments) on it while turning.



Hope this helps. C2
