I'm working on a Maple segmented turning that has a Paduak top ring and a seperate non-turned Paduak base. The turned form is kind a funneled vase that will be the main part of a golf tournament trophy and the base is a tapered octagon.
Anyway, in finish sanding the base when wiping down the base with MS (after wet sanding) the dust color "bleeds" onto the rag. It's even worse when I used DNA (after I ended up with red hands I realized I should wear gloves) to wipe the base down.
As I generally like to wet sand my turnings (using MS), I'm worried about color bleed on to the Maple peices. I recall a post on here discussing how to deal with segemetned turnings using Paduak and light colored woods.
I plan to finish with Danish oil or BLO and then buff out the peice.
Any help is appreciated.
thanks
