A little more prep and sanding, and the new vanity top is ready for a few coats of epoxy.
I love this sink!

Nice . Love the sink. Can't wait to see what it goes on. Deserves something unique.

I'll probably build the cabinet today or tomorrow. It's just gonna be a simple shaker-style cabinet that will "float" off of the floor, with under cabinet lighting.

It's just about finished. I finished spraying the cabinet yesterday and hung it this morning. The top and sink are set in place and the wife loves it. I'm being fussy, so I'm going to sand, buff, and polish the top to remove a couple of issues that bother me. Overall, I'm very happy with the result.

Larry, that is General Finishes Enduro White Poly. It's water-based and comes ready to spray. It's perfect for cabinets. I did three coats yesterday and it came out beautifully.

what about grain printing showing up, does it fill grain well?

Yep. I put on two good coats of 123 Bin and sanded lightly between coats with 220. Three coats of Enduro sanded lightly with 320 between coats. The cabinet is 1/2" Baltic Birch and 1X Poplar.

how did the 123 zins spray? did the poly burn into itself or set on top? what about witness marks from sanding?

Not a problem at all. I thinned the Bin a little bit with denatured alcohol and it sprays very well. It sands very easily and the Enduro works very well as a topcoat.
