Default Re: sealing bass wood

The ironing will not affect your cuts. To the contrary they will look cleaner in that any undercuts will appear to heal themselves. I try to sand my piece to 400 grit before I start it so that after ironing I may have to touch up with 600 grit, but not always. With a coat of sealer you won't notice a difference.
