Stock painting - 07/31/18 09:30 PM
I have a stock that has several blemishes, mostly small holes filled with colored epoxy (it came that way). I have tried artist oil paint and artist acrylic paint to try to improve how it looks. The acrylic paint has an odd sheen and you can see the difference after finishing with Pro Custom Oil or True Oil. The look is better, I think with oil paint however when applying the finish it dissolves the oil paint and it essentially disappears. Maybe a water based clear finish over the oil paint might work. I was hoping someone had some experience with this and could advise me what to do.
