    Rustic Warn Look

    Hi guys,
    I received my kit this week.
    I want a rustic warn look using oil base. How much sanding will i need to do if I don't want a polished look.
    Thanks.

    Hi Simon welcome to the forum !
    Where are you from and what kit have you purchased ?
    What sort of stains or dyes are you planning ?

    generally sand from about 180 grit to about 360 or 400 grit maximum

    any higher grits will polish the wood surface and the stain won't take very well
