Well, I've asked questions here, got answers, been reading everything in library as well as receiving some personal phone tutoring from helpful member(TonyL). And, of course youtubes. And, am making really good progress on finishes.
Today I got so much depth and gloss that I could see that I left scratches in the wood and simply covered them with CA.
I was having a lot of difficulty seeing all scratches, even with loupe. But, I learned to wipe with alcohol and while wet, inspect. That way I can see the scratches much better. Don't know the science but, works for me.
Also, have not been able to buff a good wax polish with paper towel and read all the dangers of using rags. Well, I cut soft rag in 2" x 2" squares, folded in half and wow, what a difference. And, I don't think there is any risk.
Would be happy to hear any other alternatives (other than buffing wheel setup)
Thanks for all the valuable tips and help for beginners on this site.
