Default Timberlux

I finished my first three stocks with Timberlux. When I bought it I was worried whether or not it would rub out with a cloth rag. I rub each coat with a rag which results in a microspocic build up of the finish. That is my preferred way to finish a stock. It takes a lot longer to build up a finish that way, but I believe it is worth it. Some finishes with a large amount of Japan drier won't rub out with a rag. True Oil and Linspeed will and that is why I have always used them.

But I now believe that Timberlux is a bit superior to Tru Oil and Linspeed (which produces a bright finish that must be knocked back) . The difference is not dramatic but it is noticable. From this point forward, I will do all my stock finishing with Timberlux.
