I found this on some woodworking site:

"A Great, Super-Smooth "Natural" Finish
Start by sanding your project thoroughly with a succession of finer and finer grits of sandpaper to remove all scratches. Then, flood the surface of your project with a penetrating oil finish such as Watch Danish Oil or Tung Oil. Next, sand the oil (along with the sanding dust from the wood) into the pores of the wood thoroughly with a wet/dry, 320-grit silicon carbide paper. Wipe and leave to dry overnite...then buff with a soft, dry cloth for an incredible, satin-like finish."


I'm not super familiar with woodworking and couldn't tell if he meant to sand while the oil is still wet. Does that make sense? Has anyone used a technique like this on Ebony scales? Is this basically the same thing as using Renaissance Wax?
