Grain Filler

Bill21:
Anyone used Black grain filler on Ash? Normally I’d seal the wood first then apply but I recently saw a video of Snooker Cues being made and it was applied directly to the bare wood. The affect was extremely good.

Paul Hannaby:
Yes, I've done it before with black wax and with acrylic paint. Both work

Bill21:
Did you use a sealer first?

As a general rule don't use sealer for dye or products that need to soak  into the wood, e.g. oils. Do use sealer for paint or other products that coat the wood e.g. wax.

Obviously generally general rules are for breaking  ;)

Paul Hannaby:
Yes use a sealer before applying the grain filler.
