What do you need:

5 part mineral oil (3000g)

The above makes a nice polish, esp for CA glue finishes. You can also make sanding paste, same proportions (by weight!) using different grades pumice. Be sure to label your products as they will all look alike in their containers. I have also added a ml. or so essential oil to a batch (orange, lavender, clove) to aid in identification if lid to container gets misplaced.
