[QUOTE="NEMTHunter, post: 1431402, member: 77631"] Sounds like you are getting close. I have not had to polish the stock to get it to shine with true oil. But then I have never used steel wool after the last coat. I use steel 0000 wool between every coat then the last coat I leave it as it is. If you are getting streaks as in not enough oil? Or is it runs as in to much oil? For the last coat get some soft cloth and gently apply the last coat. For build up coats I have always used my fingers. its a little messy but has always worked good. In this case on the last coat more times then not less is more. Hence the reason I would try to apply the last coat with a soft cloth. You need to use just enough oil to get the shine back from running 0000 steel wool. for me less is more on the last coat. Post up pictures after you are done! [/QUOTE]
