Steps 26-28
26. Apply the stain to the carved indentations with a cotton swab. Let dry for 12 hours.

27. Brush on a clear coat finish and apply new coats at least eight hours between applications. Hand-sand very lightly with 400-grit between coats. Apply at least three coats if the piece is to travel often.

28. After the last coat has dried, very lightly clean the piece with 0000-steel wool to desired smoothness.
