Thanks Jerry. Majority of my woodwork is finished as follows:
I sand the wood I’m going to use for the project with 120 grit followed with 400 grit I then apply the pattern and cut out Once the project is glued, dust removed and wiped clean with a damp cheesecloth I then apply my first thin coat of polyurethane and let dry for one day I usually apply a minimum of 5 coats sanding very lightly with 1500 grit sandpaper before applying the next coat letting each coat dry one day. My last step is going over the project lightly with 1500 grit sandpaper wet with beeswax (liquid or paste) and polishing dry with a cheesecloth My process is time consuming but when you touch the project it feels like glass
Hopefully this is some help to you Jerry
