Thanks for all your help!

Thank you all for your advice. Final Q - is it possible to darken the colour with Alkanet Oil once the BLO finish has started to form or is it only possible with cutting back?

Doh! would make a lot of sense given my little trial Does the Red Kite wax give a nice glossy finish? Cheers for advice

I had the stock altered on my Perazzi which involved stripping the horrible lacquer finish (and getting rid of the numerous bumps I’d given the poor ******), revealing some nice wood underneath. After about 5 coats of Trade Secrets Rapid Oil & TS-95, and one coat of TS Alkanet, is showing up some nice grains and colour. Going to give it a few more coats to get a really glassy finish but wondering whether to bother with the TS Burnishing wax - I tried a little bit on a small section of the bottom of the grip and it seemed to dull it if anything.....is there any advantage to using it or just another product for manufacturer to sell? Cheers in advance.
