Motivational shot of tru oil!

Post by Paul C » Fri Mar 17, 2017 7:31 pm

Ok so I decided to finish a guitar in tru oil all around and I like a lot. About 12 to 15 extremely light coats. Sorta polishing more than putting finish on. This stuff is nice just takes time. Nothing more to do to it really other than buff it a bit with a dry cloth.
