Varnishing - third top coat

This just might be the last layer! The instruction says to put at least 2-3 top coats. There are now three. I accidentally touched one spot after having varnished it. It could be the surface isn't quite as good there as elsewhere. On the other hand the surface will still be polished later. There are a total of 10 coats now. I suppose I will tomorrow check how good the surface now is and then decide how to continue.

After the last layer of varnish, the varnish should dry for 2-4 weeks before the final polishing with rottenstone and oil. So the cello may just get finished this year still!
