Good work my friend. Glad you liked the strong wash. The HD even at 1:1 isn't very glossy. I just used Opti-Bond this weekend for the first and I thought it was great. Just enough gloss without over doing it (IE Ghetto Gloss...

). I'll wait and see about durability. You should have tried the ASD. Couple of coats of that and you're good. Although it is solvent based.
