THE FIRST OF THE 1 LB CUT

One LB. CUT is what the deluted Alcohol/Shellac mixture is called.  It refers to the mixture of the liquid.  Most of French Polishing is done with a two LB cut mixture but the last final applications are done with a half strength solution, thus one Lb. Cut.  These last thinner coats make the instrument shine like it never did before.  I got the first of those coats on this morning.  I thought you would like to see what they look like now.  I also thought you would like to see the back sides with their Master Grade Koa.  Koa is the craziest wood.  It takes a wonderful finish and every different way you turn this curly koa in the light it shows a different grain pattern. It is just wonderful wood to finish.
Here is a close up.  Bob, this is for you!
