"New" 10 Gauge

[Patrick Butler]

Ray:

You may very well be right, as I know little of the many stock finishes. I do remember
that the when linseed oil is used, it is of a higher quality than your hardware deck finish and it is, as i remember, often cut with a solvent. This looks like a very unprofessional job as there are a few particles (sawdust?) visible under the finish.

Thank you for taking the time to respond,

Patrick

Patrick,

Congrats on the nice 10 gauge. Like Brian said. 0000 steel wool can
actually polish that old finish off. RST brand shells are a good option to get
things started.


Best regards,

Jeff
