I refinished a red oak kitchen table top, sanded to bare wood, one coat General Finishes Seal-A-Cell, one coat clear grain filler, and three coats General Finishes ArmRSeal Oil and Urethane Top Coat, semi-gloss. My usual final step for furniture is to buff out with 500 grit to 800 grit sand paper, and apply a coat of paste wax for a silky smooth touch and nice sheen. But this is my first kitchen/dining table, and coffee mugs, glasses, etc. will surely leave instant marks in a wax finish. Is there a way to buff out the dust nibs on the final coat of ArmRSeal and get a nice smooth sheen without applying paste wax?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
