Bowl Finish!

[ChrisD123]

Hello again! I've got the tools, I've got the chucks, and I've got the lathe. Now i have finished a couple test bowls and I'm looking to finish them, i have tried WTF and i just find its not that nice... idk what I'm going for but it dosent seem to tickle my fancy! i coat my pens in supper glues so im used to a very high polish however i don't think thats what I'm looking for here I'm just looking for something that easy and fast but i don't wanna use an oil really cause it need to be reapplied every so often. So could anyone give me any ideas I'm thinking shellawax of some sort but they have 3 products and idk what to use in what order or how to apply etc. etc! again thanks in advance!!!

WTF can be done to a high polish.

put on a coat. let it dry completely - then sand with 400 grit

another coat

then buff using a Beall (or similar) system

you can get a very glossy finish with WTF.
