Thanks Sonic Mountain and McCreed.

Re: steel wool - yes I realised this issue with bits of it before reading your post. Will steer clear of it from now on it is a PITA!

Off on holidays tomorrow so my idle hands can’t interfere with drying for at least a few days!

What is your advice after final coats of DT? Where does Tru-Oil fit in the timeline of things? Before or after the final 2 week drying time prior to final cut & polish? I would appreciate your wisdom!
