Varnish and Movies?

[realsorien]

I've started varnishing the new bifold doors for the basement. Yuck. I REALLY suck at this- I can't tell if its on too thick or too thin, it blobs in corners and valleys on the doors... Bleah. Well, the first coat of one side is done. I took the two sides apart to make it easier, and I should get the reverse done later tonight. Tomorrow is the first sanding and the second coat, and given how light it looks I may need to do a second sanding and third coat. O well.

In other news, I'm off to a movie shortly- we (Me, joshuwain, feezlekahn, khirsahdrgn and his guest, and iatro are headed to see Despicable Me at the Rosedale theater. The latter three will meet us there.

And that's about all that's up now.

Did you try doing it with a paint roller?

I did consider that, but there are two problems- first, a fabric roller would make little bubbles (which you do NOT want), and these are paneled doors, not flat, which makes for roller work being less than ideal. I'll get it done- the second side has the first coat now, and I'll sand 'em tonight and get side one-coat 2 on. Its prolly going to be three coats given how light it seems to be.

I heard that Despicable Me was a good movie - I hope you enjoy it.
