For a finish, is Tru-oil any good and with additional coats and rubbing compound, can you get it to Shine??
Also.........why wouldn't a Min-wax Gel Stain with several coats of the Min-Wax outdoor Spar finish work, rubbed with Brownell's 5F Stock Compound and cheeseclothed clean, between coats???

There are SO MANY products available, that whatever floats 'yer boat is good. Same goes for technique.

Kye Oat: If you want a shiny finish, TruOil will give it to you without having to polish it up. You have to work on TruOil to kill the shine -- not to bring it up.
