Thread: Wood Stock finish issue

i would have said it is the silicon as the solvent dries in the mix. so when wet, it is clear but the silicone appears as it dries.
meths or turps if the meths dont work, then if that dosent do it i would give it a trip to the dish washer, run the wood in with a load of dishes, (just slip it in whilst the wife dosent see) the dish washing powders will strip any oils and waxes off like nothing else, but the heat will crack a painted/varnished surface, so if it is an oil/wax finish it should be fine.
you wouldnt beleve it is the same piece of wood in some cases when dealing with a heavily soaked stock, it will also raise any dings whilst it goes.
i would sugest that a $8 bottle of boiled lindsead oil will be a good investment, it will provide a beautiful finish but wont harm or react with other finishes good for conditioning old stocks.

Alright - hit it with some brakeclean on a rag, pulls it back to the milky pattern
