Just a hint.  Don't try to put poly over Thunderbird, it will fail.  Been there, done that.

Sorry about your bow.  :(

Rob, wouldn't it look like crap if you don't remove the finish? I probably wouldn't have to remove all of the finish, but certainly where the checks are. Some are on the flats and some are in the checkering. I was planning on putting something other than Thunderbird on it, too. If that's not a big deal, great.

you don't need to do a thing before wicking in the cya.  take yer time and do a little at a time to fill up and harden those cracks.  water thin cya will get into the most micro of cracks and make a great bond.  

afterwards, you can prep the wood by buffing with steel wool and apply another finish ... or just buff out with 0000 wool and be done with it.

Thanks Rob. I'll try that.
