Wow great job, What did you use for paint? Can you tell I'm new at this cnc.. When I do signs just from routing I use sanding sealer before I even sand and paint does not run..

After routing I brushed on a coat of shellac then painted with acrylic craft paint that my wife had, when that dried I used my random orbit sander and sanded off the shellac and that removed all the unwanted paint. I then put on applied two coats of spray lacquer from a rattle can I got from Home Depot. I sanded with 400 grit between coats. It is really very easy to get professional looking results. I suspect you could also use spray shellac and get similar results without the smell associated with lacquer.
