Thanks for your help.

You'll probably have trouble sourcing some from the states as it is a UK product and from what I have heard from others, it is rare as rocking horse droppings over there.

I get mine from the importer here in Australia at The Woodsmith

Most guys from the states use Meguiar's Swirl Remover and Swirl Free Polish as well I think

Went to the thread but the link to the download for the video is not working.

Great tutorial. I took my third crack at it last night and nailed it.

For those that use the CA finish, is there a preferred brand of CA you use, or will any CA do the job?

LB75, this has been debated in other threads, general opinion is that the cheaper CA's from el cheapo shops are not as good as the more expensive ones from the Pen suppliers. Amos

Sweet tutorial. Just a couple of things I thought you missed. There was no sticking the paper towel to your finger and then having to soak it in acetone to get it off and also you didn't let the flannel get caught and wrap itself around the blank and spoil the finish. Great job though. Tried this method and instant success. You are a genius.
