I'd like to know how, after you sprayed your final lacquer coats, you got the front and top on this so silky smooth looking:

Did you do the final rub out by hand or with a polisher? Or did you even do a final rub out?

Also, what gloss lacquer did you use... satin, semi-gloss, or gloss? Or were the first few coats gloss followed by a couple of semi-gloss?

Thanks,
Geoff
