    Default Question on varnishing a wooden reel insert

    I just picked a very nice H-I Tonka Queen bamboo rod.
    The reel seat has been replaced with a U/L with a very light blonde wood insert.
    I wish to sand, stain, and varnish this insert to a nice cherrywood finish.

    My only question is how to avoid picking up air particles while the varnish dries?
    I will be using Ace Spar Varnish.

    When you can arrange your affairs to go fishing, forget all the signs, homilies, advice and folklore. JUST GO.
