Very nice video, Bill! I actually tried a method that I learned at cafinish.com with amazing results. I have been getting an awesome finish every time with that guy's method. I was not getting very repeatable results with BLO. Do you ever have trouble getting a really glossy shine?

Geee Wizzzzz! I just tried this and I can actually see how to fix my hair in the shine. Great ideal Bill and thanks for sharing it with us all.

Bill-

Love the finish. Just started using it this weekend and it is quite nice. Thanks for sharing.

I had this same problem, but it was remedied by 1) Keeping the applicator rag moving quickly across the piece 2) move the entire length of the piece 3) squeezing the piece while applying CA to generate heat. As William says, not so much heat that it cracks the piece.

Hi,

I've tried this method and find it my favourite way to apply the finish. One question though - i most always end up with a partially cloudy finish once i apply the polish. Any ideas what may be causing this? Trial and error has not presented me a solution yet:(

I have been doing this for years and it works really well.

I tried your method of applying a BLO/CA finish, and it works great. I got a very high polish finish, and the people who saw it think it's beautiful, especially on Deer Antler. Thank you for posting your video and instructions.

I have tried your method of applying a BLO/CA finish and it works great. I got a very high gloss finish, beyond anything I have gotten before. Thanks for the video and the instuctions.
