    Hi @makka I use various home made brews, and haven’t necessarily settled on the ‘one’ yet. Basically consists of spar varnish, Tung oil and vege turps in various ratios. Sealing it is more turps to help it soak in well, and when filling the grain less turps more solids to help fill the pores quicker. Once checkered I’ll rub out the finish with a diluted mixture to the desired sheen.
