My older brother gave my son a nice marlin model 80 22lr but the stock was repaired and a little beat up. I sanded it lightly over the bad spots and over the repaired crack and blended it all in, then went over it all with fine steelwool. I wiped it down and added the first coat of "formby's tung oil finish high gloss" it looks 100% better with just one coat. I will do 3 or 4 coats using fine steelwool inbetween coats. It just makes that old gun look new again and the kid will enjoy this treasure given to him by my brother for years to come. I have even fixed scratches in stocks with formby's also I just steelwooled the scratch to blend it in flush then the whole stock then applied formby's and it looks great again. I hate the muss and fuss with using poly's then it may or may not have runs we just take a chance even if the formbys wears off after years of use i can just redo it again its so easy to use. BigBill
