This feels a bit softer than CA, I quite like the feel of it. :thinks:

It was an old spray can I had around from about ten years ago, surprised it worked ok.
I think about 5 good coats then micro mesh T-cut and quality car polish to finish.

At first glance you would think this was a CA finish, both finish and pen look good David .. :thumbs:

A very nice pen David. I finish all my timber pens with acrylic lacquer now. It gives a super finish when polished. :thumbs:
