Vince:

Chem Pak Gun Sav'R is available in High Gloss or Satin Gloss 14 oz. spray cans. It is also available as a hand rub in oil and as a liquid for air brush application.... I prefer the Hunter Satin and adjust the final finish as required.

I adjust the gloss level by waxing with a good carnuba wax. After the final coat cures, steel wool lightly with #0000 wool, then wax to your desired gloss by "spit shining" in small circular motions with an H20 wetted cotton patch and carnuba wax.

For dull oil finishes, rub the already semi dull satin finish very lightly to your desired dull finish with #0000 steel wool and clean up as necessary with a wetted cotton patch and carnuba wax.

I suggest you practice first on an old blank stock or other scrap piece of wood until you develop a comfort level with this product that satisfies you.

Hope this helps and Best Regards,


VERY HIGH GLOSS WITH ALL PORES FILLED......
