x2 on the above, except to say that all these things are formulated to work together. It's the coats after the W/G that are the concern. Wax and grease remover shouldn't be a problem, (I used PPG before Nason on Yeller, 'cause that was what was at the shop) Lots of guys are paranoid about that, but whatever works for ya. Your guide sounds good, but yeah, you gotta let that stuff dry. Glad to hear you had an easier time. Don't be po'ed about the seam sealer, you want it to stay flexible. Like Cman said, just cut it a wide berth with the block. YOu did round off one edge of your Durablocks, right? They get a bit sharp on the small details. Important tip: especially from here on in, NEVER just use your fingers and paper. You can dig finger tracks faster than you can imagine. Take a used piece of scotchbrite and fold it in thirds, wrap your DA paper around it, works great. Keep it up, you're doing good. This is the edge of the cliff where it all starts to come together and be worth it. Kind of like being out in the woods, just keep walkin', you'll get there!
