Finish for oak topped side table

[woodbloke66]

I re-finished my wine tables with severial brushed on coats of thinned down (30% with white spirit) Satin Osmo and then cut back with 0000g wire wool 'twixt each coat, finally burnishing the top surface with some super fine stuff from WH. Interestingly, before I started, the original Polyvine Wax finish had allowed larger stains on the bottom of beer glasses (so virtually transparent) some way through, so I had to cut that old finish well back before I could apply the new. The look good now though and the tops are, as far as I can tell, pretty bullet proof - Rob

Oddly I've got a breakfast bar... which does not seem to get stained by red wine [/quote]

Not even I am that much of a sot!
