I turned my first pen last night and I'm heading to the shop tonight for another round.
I've been reading finishing posts all day (in between looking like I'm working), and I see various methods. The ones I have at my disposal this evening is Shellawax.
Last night I applied 2 coats, not too sure if I got it hot enough to do the trick or not either. I'm "ok" with the finish, but I'm really wanting the wood to have a higher gloss.
Should I be applying a CA coat first, sand it down and then go to Shellawax? Is 2 coats enough, or is this a product that benefits from additional coats? Is there perhaps a product that I would apply after Shellawax?
Sorry for the tons of questions, but I'm really new and looking to learn.
Thanks in advance,
Tom
