I'm in the last stages of finishing a maple trestle-legged table. I'm finding that the BLO/Varn/Turps mix I'm using has a tad more gloss than I'd like. I'm considering doing one last coat applied with #0000 steel wool and lotsa rubbing.....anyone tried this? Or am I better off applying a pastewax buffcoat later? I'm supposed to deliver this tomorrow.....heh. I tried it on a sample piece....looked pretty good. Just thought I'd ask around before I started buffing.
I'll try to attach a picture. Thanks in advance. Walt
