Always looks good when wet. Hopefully this coat stays shiny.

Mornin, Al. Lou, will you have to go over it with steel wool after final coat?

Steel wool? Never heard of that. Not a woodworker myself. Appreciate any tips.

I'm certainly not a woodworker but I recall steel wool taking off the imperfections. Lemme do some googling before we mess up your project.

Never heard of steel wool? Use it on my chrome about once a year... takes off stuff that soap and water won't touch, and at 000 it leave zero scratches
