Thanks Hondo appreciate the info.... as well as all the other great ideas. Coincidentally, I haven't been doing any 'finishing' since I posted that question in March; but just this week decided to strip and re-finish the J.C. Higgins .22 rifle that my father bought me back in the mid 1950's.... I did a botch job of it when I was a 'yewt'; and after all these years of feeling my hands get sticky on the old .22's stock, I decided to try and do it right this time.... you know, before the 'big round-up in the sky'. She shoots beautifully and I still take her out to the range a few times a year just to show the kids what a real .22 can do ))
THANKS ALL,
John
