[QUOTE="Sully2, post: 638114, member: 31820"] Use OOO grade steel wool and mineral spirits to "rub/scrub/disolve?" the finish...later on switch to oooo grade steel wool. You can use "Tru-Oil" on the bare wood...first 2 coats put on HEAVY...and it fills the pores of the wood. Then to to thin coats...rubbed in good... and after 2 more a rub down "gently" with that OOOO grade steel wool. Wipe off and go back to fine coats of finish...2 more...steel wool it again...etc...etc. If you wish it to be as such...the last 2 put on VERY gently and clean and let dry. The stock will be glass like its plastic covered. If you dont want gloss..rub it every so slightly with the OOOO grade steel wool. I have got 10 coats total on a custom stock...looks mighty shiny [/QUOTE]
