Man that is exactly the finish I'm lookin for can you do a step by step on it for us?

 

[Milpaul]

What they said! Great finish, what did you use?

 

[guts]

John,not much to it,get the blanks looking like they don't need any finish with sandpaper and m.m.,then two coats of thin ca. and two coats of thick(let the ca dry good)400 grid sandpaper,then m.m. up to 12,000,tsw and buff,hope this helps.
