Doctor Ben's Fine Scale NailHole Tool Instructions: This Fine Scale Nail Hole Tool is fairly simple to use. Using a straight edge, run the wheel of the Fine Scale Nail Hole Tool along the straight edge in a pre-determined spacing. In other words, whichever direction you push the wheel, we highly recommend that the teeth of the blade be turning in a DOWN direction. Experiment first with scrap pieces similar to material that you are planning to use before tackling a major project. Begin using light pressure first in order to obtain desired results. A light colored wash will show effects immediately. As always, we recommend Doctor Bens Instant Age as a wash which will enhance the nail holes without filling in the grain of the wood. Doctor Bens Instant Age should also be used for the most realistic effects of weathering wood to appear sun bleached. If the surface is to be painted, paint the area first and then use the Doctor Bens Fine Scale Nail Hole Tool to prick up the paint, creating very realistic weathered nail holes.
