Well John that is a beautiful HF and finish. Love the form. I have been using the WTF now for about 3 months and love it. Like you I generally put 10 to 12 coats on. When it was cold I use one of my wife's old hair dryers. I use it on low heat and low fan. Even when cold and damp I can put 8 to 10 coats on in about 30 minutes. Thanks for posting your findings.
