RE: EEE Craem

[Jamie]

Could someone give me the pros & cons of a finish using EEE Polish and Shellawax? Thanks!

Let me put it this way: I can't think of a single reason to use them if I want my finish to last more than a week.

Jamie, EEE is a fine rubbing compound to help smooth the sanding marks and a lot of people use it. Shellawax is a finish that holds up better than some of the friction polishes, but not as well as some of the other finishes such as ca glue or enduro.

Pro: It's easy to use
Con: It doesn't last
It seems to be favored by some who don't care for a "plastic" CA finish and want a pen with a more natural feel.

I read about these products in "The Pen Turners Workbook" and I'm very glad I asked you all before buying. Thanks!!!

I don't use it for pens but for some other turnigs, such as bowls, it is a nice option.
