I've always used rottenstone or pumice rubbed on with a wet shop cloth. Be sure to mask off checkering to avoid filling it with the compound. It is a bitch to get out of the checkering. | ||

I've used steel wool before and it usually works OK. Another thing you might try is an overcoat of a clear flat if you can find one compatible with the current finish......DJ | |||

What type of clear, flat coat would you suggest? Some type of varnish? | ||

Mike, The finish on your stock is (depending on how old it it is) poly. I have finished and refinished many stocks and my best advise to you is to start with "0" steel wool and gradualy work upwards (ie "00", "000", "0000"). You will probably find a sheen you like before you make it to "000". | |||

If I start with 0 steel wool and work up is it likely then that I won't need to apply a varnish or flat poly to the stock? | ||
