Hi Spidey,

I haven't tried your rag application technique but I do have a question for you.

What kind of film thickness are you achieving with this technique? Coatings need a certain minimum film build or they do not have the protection required. I am not sure what it would be for varnish but wonder how many coats you would need to apply using this technique to achieve it.
