I have read so many threads on wood finishing my head hurts. I'm nearing completion of my laminated hickory rifle stock for my 96 swede.
I have been testing finishes on a second piece. Originally I planned to do tru-oil, but it's turning out lighter than I want. Is there something I can do to darken it up a bit? I know it's going to be a blonde stock, I just don't want it plain bright.
I'm open to other options too, but I do like the feel of the tru-oil.
FYI my test piece has three coats burnished with ooo steel wool between each.
