I'm using 3/4" 23 gauge Grex pin nails to glue and fasten a 1/4" sheet of 2 sided mahogany veneer with an MDF core to solid mahogany. I have applied a hardwax finish to the mahogany at this point and it has cured.
The problem I am having is that the end of the steel pins can be seen in the final product. Most people probably won't see them but I'd like to make them less perceptible.
Cadex claims the end of their pins are rounded to reduce the chance of seeing them.
Is there a pin that is painted brown?
Perhaps I could increase the air pressure to try and drive the pin a bit further into the surface.
Thanks for your help.
