I'm in a process of finishing 11-48 stock with tru oil. This is walnut stock. I prepped it and there is open grain.
So far I applied 3 coats. After first 2 I was knocking down tru oil completely with 0000 steel wool. My idea is that when I do that - there is oil still in a grain. I want to fill all the grain by keeping doing this.
I don't see it filling too much. I wonder if by sanding I'm getting all the oil out of the grain? Or I should keep going?
