i used to do my gun stocks....i sanded them for weeks it seemed like......
before i got them the way the grain looked just right...and brought it out.
i applied tung oil with my thumb the way this old timer showed me
nice smooth strokes.....like how sylvester stalone as Rambo sharpens his big ole knife....real slow and gentle like.
they used to come out mint...too and the weather never even phased them.....with 3-4 coats.
Those were the days......

out on the salt marsh duck huntin with shells i loaded myself....
but i digress
i'd do the left side then the right.... on different days....light sand
in between coats...and the tac rag was so important.
thanks though guys for all that great info....
seems like tho..... :
we were just talkin about that super easy hardening wax recently....
we're all over the place.
