required to get a good finish.
You might have to apply more coats on more porous woods.
If you prefer a high gloss, wipe the stock clean with a special stock rubbing compound, and apply one
final coat of stock oil.
If you prefer a rubbed finish, rub the entire stock very lightly with pumice, rubbing just enough to remove
some of the gloss but leaving a satin glow look to the finish.
Whether you prefer the high gloss or rubbed look, the final step is to wax the stock completely with good
quality paste wax, rubbing until hard. I find that a good paste floor wax is hard to beat. Finish off by
wiping with a soft flannel cloth.
Safety First.
