I turned a small vessel today (picture below) and have it sitting and drying inside. I sanded to 500 wet/dry using Formby's tung and wiped down well, then put one more coat let sit for a bit and wiped it down well.
I read where alot of turners will coat up to 3-4 times with this Formby's letting each coat dry for 24hrs - rubbing between coats with grey or green 3m pad or 400-500grit etc.... then the final coat letting it sit for a week to totally cure well. Then buff with Tripoli and WD....then hand rub on Renissance wax and hand buff off................................
In the case of the above I may just use tripoli and then go to Renissance - skipping the WD and white junk in the pores.....
Sound right ?
