I needed some dishes/small platter to hold some gifts.
I spun them out of blocks of sapele.
The first coat of Formsby tung oil mix, went on perfect. Put a second coat on, the sapele really soaks it up.
After the second coat, I intended on letting it cure for a week, then spraying it with some can lacquer, just for glossy look.
I didn't like the few sanding marks that seemed to show a lot more in the center after I oiled it.
I sanded out the center again and this time used Danish oil.
Its been a week, the coat of Danish oil on top of formsby tung oil is not drying properly.
Is it time to abandon them? Any tricks or did I make a big boo boo.
