    Before first wet sand

    I am happy at this point that the clear coats of Tru Oil are going on nicely. I do think that it is about time I level the coats as a couple of bumps are here and there.

    My quandary is to wet-sand with what and at what grade?

    I have seen Tru Oil used as the liquid with 600 to 1200 grit paper.

    I have seen linseed oil used with similar grits.

    I have seen the micromesh pads used with water...with a little dishsoap for slippies. (I have the 14 piece micromesh kit from sandpaperman.)

    I am having my third attempt at getting an even finish with my BG-46 kit......okay...sanded through again.....PHARQ.

    So this downunderbird will hang for at least three days now....and then I shall attack to de-bump...fluff....and one hair....the finish. Here is hoping I can make a choice of what to use first...and secondly I don't blast through the finish.
