What Finish Is Ok On Top Of Super Sheen

Recommended Posts

I just finished a piece with tooling and oiled it let it dry, super sheened it and let dry and the antiqued it and let it dry and then airbrushed the the edges ( not the edging that we burnish and finish but the outside perimeter ) and let dry and wiped for some striking and aged effect, it came out awsome, so now I have dye on top of super sheen, so my question is can I use tan kote on top of super sheen, I have satin sheen but is still to bright, shiney for what I want, tan kote will give me the effect I want but I don't know if it is compatible with the super sheen, I need something to lock in the dye that is on top of the super shine, it is a journal cover so it wont see much use but just enough to maybe get dye run off that I don't want later down the road , thanks for any help I can get

I have used the AEROSOL Super Shene (several coats) to prevent lifting off. After sealing with Super, you can use a coat of Satin Sheen to reduced the glare. Post a picture; it sounds like you have a neat looking project.

on a test piece , I tried tan kote and it wiped the dryed dye away like it was a cleaner , well I guess the super shine did its job . so I just airbrushed a 50/50 mix of my holster resolene and let it dry and it worked perfect sealing everything in . I tried to post pics the quick way but they are to big and is there away I can bring the file size down without getting a url for them?

So far I've been using this stuff over the top of Super Sheen....

Seems quite nice and quick to dry before final buffing ^^
