Padauk-To Beal or not to Beal
I am typing this with hands purple with padauk dust. I and getting
ready to turn the foot off my first piece of padauk. I searched the archives about finishing it and didn’t see anything about using the beal buffing system with it. I usually use just the beal, sometime with coats of mineral oil first to enhance the grain, sometimes just mineral oil, and a few times I have used salad bowl finish. The point of my post is that I was just going to leave the wood unfinished as it got a nice satin look from sanding, but should I put something on it? I’m not asking about UV protection just in general: fingerprints, dust... Thanks, Wil |
