Does anyone know if I should wax after final urathane coat or not? The clear gloss looks great. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 1,107 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 1,107 | i put six coats of the same thing you used on my flatbed. after it had fully dried i waxed mine along with the freshly painted bed frame. since i didnt want to scratch it all up right away when i was loading my travel box for the south bend trip. i decided to take my shoes off and climb up there to load the box. i almost broke my neck when i slipped on the surface, slicker than ice. it looks super shined with a coat of wax on it and beads up well when it gets wet. just be careful up there with no shoes on or when its wet. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2009 Posts: 56 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Aug 2009 Posts: 56 | Thanks for the reply, can you tell me what you waxed with? Has it all held up good to the weather?
