[Woodcarver] Cottonwood Bark Finishing question

[jjellies]

Alex,

For what it's worth I also use really thin superglue to strengthen but 
then I like to use thinned oils for any added color. You can control 
the viscosity of oils really well and even add cobalt to it if you 
want a fast set-up. Still, the dry time is longer, but then coating 
with laquer is a breeze. I wouldn't paint on top of laquer myself 
though a quick coat might be ok. I've also used sanding sealer...very 
lightly before painting and that has held up well
