    Smife,
    very nice looking bowl. In what order did you use Danish, eee and glow? I have only eve used Danish by itself and would have thought it and glow were mutually exclusive.
    cheers

If he gets it without working for it; he's a parasite; and if he accumulates it after a life time of hard work, people call him a fool who never got anything out of life."

    Nice piece of wood and very nicely turned. I like the clean simple lines.

    A nice shape. The rim sets it off well.

    hi mick,
    not too sure what you mean by ''mutually exclusive'',but anyway
    i sand to 400grit put on heaps of DO. leave it to dry off a bit [go and have a coffee]
    give it another quick coat and sand again with 400 grit while still wet work up a slurry
    then dry it off then add EEE and Glow as normal hope this helps

    and a thank you everyone from your comments very much appreciated
    cheers smiife
