In Part 3 we apply the second coat and then wipe it off. This is the finish I apply to just about every one of my woodworking projects. I haven't seen any other info on the web about it so I figured I'd put together a series of videos showing how I mix and apply it. See full description for more! Part 1: Mixing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiVacQgN5KU Part 2: First Coat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GWq2Ns4nOX8 Part 3: Second Coat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwtV3N0z4hU Part 4: Burnish & Wax (Coming Soon) I've found that most woodworking finishes are a mix of three factors: • Ease of application • Time spent applying • Beauty & Protection And it's usually a tradeoff: every finish only gets you two of the three in most cases. This one gives you beauty and ease of application in exchange for time: each coat takes a day to dry and you'll usually want 4+ coats. But for me that's a trade I'm willing to make as I think this is one of the most beautiful finishes you can get and it's really easy to mix and apply. I learned about this finish from my first woodworking course up in Orange County, CA with William Ng at his school: https://wnwoodworkingschool.com/ Products used: Varnish: http://amzn.to/2DJWu5w Tung Oil: http://amzn.to/2EkWOIY Boiled Linseed Oil: http://amzn.to/2EmP9du Lacquer Thinner: http://amzn.to/2EmPjBC Bloxygen: http://amzn.to/2DUdp8X #0000 Steel Wool: http://amzn.to/2DLBP58 Howard Feed-N-Wax: http://amzn.to/2FuGtkp Gloves: http://amzn.to/2DJXczI Tupperware: http://amzn.to/2npmZ9A Butcher/Freezer Paper: http://amzn.to/2DKlHNk Bag o' Rags: http://amzn.to/2Emcvj3 Painter’s Triangles: http://amzn.to/2DZwhn0
