burnt

The crystals are something I hav'nt mess with yet but most are mixing a 1-4 or 1-5 ratio with the crystals being 1.I still make my stain the old fashion way using nitric acid.

I've applied a non-diluted coating of Chambers nutmeg brown, let it dry for about 5 hours, and then the first coat of Chambers finish. I'm very happy with the results. A few more coats of the finish, letting it completely dry in between, and it's done!!

I put a heavy coating of Chambers finish oil on yesterday. (As the instructions say to do) Today I took a fine scrubbing pad (0000) and "polished" the stock. Then applied a lighter coat of the Chambers oil.

Hey Jim Chambers!!!.......Really nice stuff!!!

On a scrap piece I did half with the Chambers oil and the other half with a "Minx Antique Oil Finish."  I watched a youtube video on the Minwax and decided to compare the two.

IMHO amateur opinion, between the Chambers, Minwax, and Trueoil, the Chambers product is the best of the three. The initial coating is absorbed into the thirsty wood. Even after just scrubbing down the 1st coat the stock looks really nice.

But I think a second coating will be helpful with water resistance and getting those "dry spots."

Chamber's finish is good stuff. 


Don't be afraid to keep coating.  I don't count..but the 2 I've done with it have several coats.
