Any suggestions on a finish for a denim pen plank? I bought some from BB and was contemplating how to finish them up.

If it is denim, some starch and a hot iron will make it look real good .....[

I would think it has been created using CA (BB could tell you) and a CA finish would be your best bet!
MY guess would be CA.
I didn't want to spend $10.00 perblank and "rolled my own"
CA is the finish.

Eagle, with all sincerity, regardless of the price I like your denim pens a lot better than the ones made with commercial blanks. Besides, you can vary the patterns very easily the way you do it. Just my 25 cents.

Hey, Eagle, how'd it smoke? [}] Oh wait a minute... That was a different topic many years ago. [:I]

Mike, the only one I did, I just used MM to 12000 and finished with Ren Wax. Comes out pretty shiny. I am thinking of leaving the next one with just a sort of rough sanded finish so it will look like worn denim. Just turn the pen and decide as you go along.

I've always just used my usual CA finish on the Denim blanks I've gotten from BB.
