[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 3693151, member: 3099"] That concoction is called Danish Oil. It's a great way to finish and would be good on these. I personally would sand to 220 and flood it in. Then wet sand in multiple coats like you state with finer grits with each coat. You can get a glass like finish this way with no real buildup. I hate 'plasticy" thick films on wood. You just don't want to sand too fine before you hit the wood with the finish because you can "polish" the wood to where it won't let any finish penetrate. I've also been known to substitute pure tung oil for the BLO but either works since the poly does the protecting. [/QUOTE]
