[QUOTE="crrcboatz, post: 3693049, member: 32702"] I seal maple rifle stocks with a mixture of boiled linseed oil, satin polyurethane, and turpentine. I hand rub the mixture in then let it set for 24 hrs. This seals the wood and begins the finish process all in one. I then sand the wood with 600 wet/ dry , wipe it dow in with a tiny bit of mineral spirits. Set for 2 hrs then repeat the process again . Each tim I up the sand paper to 800 then 1000 grit. Finally. After completing the 3 rd or 4 th time I use pumice and olive oil to get the desired gloss and smoothnesss I want. On small projects like this this would be a snap. If you decide u r interested, send them to me and I’ll do them for free. Pay it forward then . Blond maple like that is FAR too pretty to EVER stain. Please please don’t do that to them [/QUOTE]
