Hi Greg,
Brownells is a good product, but I've had good results with Meguiar's polishing compounds.
I use Meguiars because they're readily available at almost any auto store. I have a traditional oil
(BLO/Tung/Turp/Jap Dryer mix) finish and recently rubbed out this finish with Meguiar's Fine Cut Cleaner #2
followed with a final rub out using Show Car Glaze #7 (finer cut).
I don't think it matters much what brand of polishing compound you use, but it's important
to work in stages (finer to finest). These compounds allow you to get a finer degree of polish
than you can get with rottenstone/steel wool. I also recommend checking out a few books on
traditional furniture finishing from the library. This helped me a bunch with basics.
I'd be happy to email you a few things that may be helpful.
Let me know if you're interested.
-Jim
