    If a man is alone in the woods, says something, and a woman does not hear, is he still wrong?

    Common sense is not a gift. It's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone else who doesn't have it.

    By the way, I noticed you said you were going to use automotive polishing compound on your mantle. I tried the same (per one of the YouTube videos), and it made my finish duller. I used the same compound (Maguire's) and the same orbital sander/ lint free cloth combo the dude on the video had. Obviously your luck is better than mine, but just a heads up to try a small inconspicuous spot to make sure it's going to give you the best results. That mantle looks great, by the way. I hope my wife never sees it, she's already implying that once I get all my trial and error out of the way I should attempt some furniture refinishing around here.

    Most don't know that Maguire's has a numbered professional line. It is not on the shelf with the waxes etc. It will be with the auto paint supplies.

    Quick buff out. Now IF I can find my old paste wax. Once again my wife has reorganized something and my things are missing.

    For all of you that have an beautiful stock, all it takes is time and elbow grease. No short cuts like poly.
