My thanks to all who replied to my earlier post (http://sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?t=87579&highlight=cherry+suntan) on giving cherry a suntan.
A fellow woodworker asked the question,
"Is there a difference in suntanning before or after applying the Waterlox? I noticed that you only applied one coat on 1/2 of the board but never showed the end result of the suntan."
Well, I will let a test board answer the question.
Here is the test board at one day of tanning:

The test board at 11 days of tanning:

Hopefully my video on the blog will sway some of you to try giving cherry a suntan before completing your finishing schedule.
