I have tried CA/BLO finish on my pens, and got very inconsistent results, plus I can not stand the fumes. I went to woodcraft this morning and asked for some suggestions, and the salesman told me to use MM, then EEE then Mylands friction polish then carnauba wax. He said it would would be the nice shinny finish I was looking for. I could not afford all of it at once, so I left out the EEE. Will that ok? What do you all think about this finish process, I will not be able to try it for a couple days.
