I recently finished applying several coats of tru-oil to my maple stock. It is a bit too shinny for my likens. Is there a way to reduce the shine?
I know what you mean, cuz True Oil can get that way. If your final coat is completely dry........ Take a cotton cloth (I like old white Tee shirts) wetted with a small amount of turpentine, rub out sections at a time. Don't over soak, but use the rag damp with elbow grease. Look at your results, and if it is still has too much sheen, go over again. It needs to dry to the touch to really see a result. If that don't work, you should be able to let dry and try something else that is compatible with True OilI recently finished applying several coats of tru-oil to my maple stock.

0000 steel wool...I recently finished applying several coats of tru-oil to my maple stock. It is a bit too shinny for my likens. Is there a way to reduce the shine?
I've also never had a issue with steel wool leaving particles behind -- I guess we are the only two that know how to use the stuff!
