Thanks to you gentlemem for your replys. Just read two more oak finishing
articles and both filled the pores. One by using a product made for that
as a
first application and the other sanded with oil to fill the pores. How do
you
manage to 'leave the pores only partially filled'/ Mike in Arkansas
Having just picked up some 20.7% ammonia Monday
Just be careful with that stuff.
AND
having just read an article by Stickley last night,
I'll try to do as he did: fume and wax. I'll try using a shoe-
brush on the wax to remove it from the pores. Since I had to
settle for red oak (some QS), I'll play with finishes until I
get something I like, but I won't intentionally fill the Oak's
lovely pores.
JPGs to follow...some day.
