<BR>> Since no one else seems to be answering I'll give it a whirl.<BR>> It's been my impression that Tung Oil will only shine up so<BR>> much and you can't really get a gloss finish. If that's what you<BR>> have been trying for I don't think you'll get there.

I have put 5 coats of tong oil and sanded after each coat with 600 grit paper. I can't seem to get a luster or shine on it. After the last coat I hand buffed it and still no deep luster or shine. This is the 1st time i've used tung oil. What am i doing wrong or am I expecting to much. thanks for the help<BR>>> Charley -------------- next part ------
