Re: Even waterbase sunburst on spruce?
You can put it directly on the wood and it gives a more blended sunburst with edges that are not real defined. If you spray a sealer coat first you can spray or rub your burst and it will be easier to work with. It will give a more defined line between shades but that is how most production finishes are done. Both methods can work fine, but they give different results. If you wish to go straight to the spruce, I recommend using some scraps to practice on until you are happy with your technique and outcome.
Have a Great Day!
