Thanks for the info re wire wool!!! Very interesting!
A question re my 50/50 mix...
If I reduced the oil part would the varnish give a higher shine faster?
Maybe I need to try and see?

Les Thorne was our demonstrator last night. He said he uses lemon oil exclusively. He also said he avoids wax.

I use Lemon Oil when I want a Matt finish, but it takes a long time for the smell of the solvent to clear. Stinks of naptha/petrol for days!
