Step 8: Clear Coat
Next I strung the wind catcher and gave the whole thing several coats of clear gloss enamel.
Here is where I made a MAJOR error: I thought that since the surface was dry the whole thing was dry. It is not. Leave this over night AT LEAST. It would probably be better for a couple of days of curing. I ended up with fingerprints and rag marks (trying to protect the finish) that required me leaving it for a day then sanding then another coat of color and another few coats of clear.
