Clean a Wood Stock

[EddieM]

car wax NO.

Check out Toms 1/3 wax. Many like it, but it leaves the stock looking too new & fresh for my taste. Products

A thought, I would get some 1/3 wax and a jar of Kotton Klenser wood feeder and try it on an old board and see what you like best.


I use Kotton Klensers wood feeder at the Antique store and on gun stocks to maintain a dull finish that re-oils dry wood. Not on oak. The 1/3 wax works on stocks with a thick finish and produces a nice shine to the wood. OK on oak. Just depends on what you want. Also see the CMP M1 link in the second link about wood conditioning M1 stocks:

Most say that I´m a newbie with stocks. Nice videos I just saw it and the oil scrub too, thanks again.
Cheers

You should not have a shiny finish on a M1 carbine, so you do not want to use wax. Just stay with the RLO for the correct finish and wipe it down with RLO once or twice a year to keep it hydrated and correct in appearance.

Yeah I agree, thank you again Singer
