Ship & shore with Alkanet. Velvet oil with Alkanet?

Chaps,

I am currently finishing an walnut stock and am sanding (block) the tooling marks and profiling the cheek piece, fore end etc

With the stock I received two bottles:

1. Ship & Shore with Alkanet
2. Velvet Oil with Alkanet

What is the application of these products and at what stage during the finishing process?

I have yet to fill the pores which sounds quite intensive. Is one of these products for this application?

I have done some research on this site but cannot find these products by the above mentioned names.

Any help will be most appreciated.

Final question - is it worth sealing the wood before final sanding?

You might try the process described by board member Duane Wiebe. I have used this method several times with great results. It really helps to have a dry, warm, dust free place to do the finishing. http://www.customgunandrifle.c...icle&id=15&Itemid=14

Yes, seal with Ship & Shore prior to final sanding, filling the pores. Let it dry thoroughly then final sand with a little Velvet oil as lubricant.
