Push the inlay in and wipe any excess glue squeeze out of the fretboard.
Allow to dry overnight, remove tape.
Using 220 grit sandpaper I smooth the surface from and any residual glue.
Rough sanded
Finish sand with 400 grit sandpaper.
Re-oil the fretboard.
String it up and all finished.
Masking tape gone, pearl rough cut.

Dont be shy, we want to float the new inlay into its flush position.
The same process applies, regardless of it being one or nine, the end result is the same
