How long should I let the final coat of Waterlox cure before I use the paper bag method of removing nibs? Also, I should use MS or just the paper bag? Last question: Should I wax the surface when I'm done or just leave it as-is? Thanks in advance!

30 days or so is best; if you must do it sooner 2 weeks is OK... best to crumple the bag, that's wet with MS.
Wax is a personal choice; doesn't provide much protection and needs to be maintained.
I'm about 50/50 using it.

Finishing is an 'Art & a Science'. Actually, it is a process. You must understand the properties and tendencies of the finish you are using. You must know the proper steps and techniques, then you must execute them properly.
Thanks, Scott! I'll wait a month and skip the wax.
