Shiny stocks

[SIMON-B]

Just had the lacquer removed and an oil finish applied to my stock, can anyone recommend a product to bring a shine back. :huh:

Doh!!

Small(very small) amounts of oil hand rubbed in, after a few coats it will shine like stink.

Which oil was used?

Don't do what I did..............

I have used CCL stock oil for decades. It's hard work but the results are good, just don't re apply until the first coat is properly dry.

Don't bother with Ronsons...... Wilko £1.99 a tin.

I've only ever done one stock refinish and I used Birchwood Casey Tru Oil and it did leave a shiny finish.

Spar Varnish or Bar top Varnish, very glossy and hard wearing. BUT it is Varnish! ! ! !

CCL Gunstock conditioning oil, have patience the result is worth it.

You want a finishing compound its a wax with fine grit in and will buff up a treat. Available from any good gun shop, can't remember the make will have a look after.

yes I think this is what I'm looking for, had the wood bleached to lighten it and bring the grain out, adding more oil will darken it and I'm trying to avoid that...thanks..

Doh!!
