climate. Since it was cold I decided to wait until it warmed up so buffed an oak bowl with no tung or Danish oil on it and gave it to someone who loved it. When I saw her a couple of weeks later she asked me if she should put mineral oil on it after a while like I had told her to do with some other bowls. I was not sure if she should put anything on it but told her I would ask this group since you guys usually know more than I do. My thought was mineral oil might raise the grain in the wood if it got through the thin wax coating I put on with the buffing wheel and it would shine less. Anyone have any experience with caring for buffed bowls they want to pass along? Thanks. Other posts:
