Yep steel wool sucks the stain out of the body.

I have done four coats of Fine Buffing Oil two at different grades of steel wool each.

Note to self for future use. One coat only with two grades only of steel wool. Any more coats to be applied with soft cloth...in my case an old T shirt.

I will let it hang now for a week...until my next days off...and decide then whether I sand it or keep going.

I don't mind the finish, but the burst is basically non existent.
