Polishing

The layers of oil have been applied and fully dried. Now it is time for polishing to bring out the grain pattern even more and to give the guitar a satin shine. It will not have the high gloss you end up with most lacquer finishes but a more dim gloss. The material to use when polishing are beeswax, a cotton rag and lams wool. 

The beeswax is first applied with the rag. When a layer is applied you buff it up with the lams wool to bring out the shine. Because the wax dries very fast you have to do the guitar in sections starting at the top, then one side, the other side, back and finish at the neck. Then start over at the top etc. till three layers are applied. The pictures below show the end result. But it is hard to show the "real result" on a picture but you get an idea of how it looks.

And to end this post a try-out with some sort of photo shop software:
