I'm attempting to redo a walnut frame that I had applied 1 coat of danish oil, and then did the Beall system.
I re-sanded everything with 220, and then compressed-air cleaned, and wiped with mineral spirits.
After the MS wipe down, the walnut appeared to be exceptionally clean, nothing in the pores. After a period of time, the walnut pores are now worse off then when before I started using the MS.
Compressed air cannot clean the pores.
In wiping with the MS, did I fill just fill in the pores with the mess that was on the walnut?
Any help for a newb?
