Does polyurethane and other type of finishes help in redusing the weather effects on laminated stocks or can the unfinished laminated stock be ok without any finsh {natural wood feel}?
Comments
Forgot to mention you probably don't want me doing one if it has any design in the wood, like checkering, etc. I'm talking smooth wood only, and all I do is sand it down to get surface scratches out. Then I put a natural (neutral) stain on, and cover with a shiny laquer if desired.
If you have a Winchester model 1200,, that's the finish i would like to obtain.. I have done the tongue oil years ago but was not happy with my ability. Yes i have all winter to do this..:):)

For simplicity, I'd use an oil finish but one with dryers fixed in. WATCO is a good one. Apply it as per instructions and you will be happy with the job. You can have finish that ranges from a 'natural' look right up to shiny, just keep applying and rubbing. It's a good all around product that's stood the test of time.

Carry on.
