Thanks everyone. Your feedback is very helpful. I have another test drying now. The first has another coat. Hoping that will build up the texture. The second is now more dense. Will probably need to sand that down a bit before putting on another topcoat. Will post updates tomorrow.
In the meantime, I had an opportunity to convert the GB2 Ion Arm End Cap into a GB1 version. At the time I ordered from the GBFans store, the GB1 was out of stock. Turns out, I could have waited for a stock refresh but I didn't want to be empty handed when I needed one.
Drilling was straightforward. I did need a small countersink because the brass elbow threads stop a bit short. Tapping was a little rough but it worked out.
