Default Finish for oak end tables

Mike,

I don't know here you having been buying your wood, but the wood I buy isn't
very reflective.

What is that your using "mirrorwood" ?

That's right expert. I consider gloss a glare off of the surface of a

finish
rather then the penetration and depth and also 3D effect you get by

rubbing
out. But then again you are the expert with such vast

experience...........

Read Odeen"s post about experts who have "read" something. It's tailored

for
you.

Ah, come on Mike.

Do you really wanna keep embarrassing yourself this way?

Hey everyone! Mike here thinks you can't put a gloss on a finish by

rubbing
out.

Ah the expert speaks again from his whole year and a half of

experience.

While you are imparting to Tom and Odeen all the things they don't

know
about shellac, which your vast experience has given privy too, why

don't
you
tell them how there is no such thing as a sense of depth and a 3D

effect
from figured wood if you have a properly rubbed out finish.

I'm sure they would appreciate the knowledge you can pass on to them.

Have a good one, stoutman. Hope I didn't **** ya off.

No. Ya didn't. It's all in good fun.

I don't claim to know everything about finishes, hell I just started

this
wooddorking stuff a year and a half ago. I have just read a lot of
negative
things about shelackky. I am reluctant to use it on "high use"

items
based
on what I have read.
