With Grain Filler or Without? It's up to you!

Will Aqua coat (the clear version) fill the grain and texture on a burl guitar top? Also, what finishes can be applied to get a high gloss finish, can you use a 2k gloss for instance?

Dave you can fill the grains and pores using the Clear Grain Filler. If you are trying to fill texture and the imperfections are large the filler will look opaque. Always run a complete test of your planned finishing processes all the way to the end on sample board of the wood you plan on working with and yes you can apply a 2k over the filler.
