Top work as always Mark and that finishing just looks absolutely spot on. Can I ask if your happy to answer. Do you linseed wax before or within your polishing stage? Just ask as this one seems to be a lovely shade as if waxed or linseed oiled.

No it�s just polish Chris,,,,
This bats quite dark in colour, almost a caramel colour.
I tend to oil the bat after I�ve fitted stickers, unless the customer wants to do it,(not very often)

Just iv played about with before and after in terms of waxing and thought I would pick the brains as your finishing seems right up there every time 👍

I�ve not used wax on a bat for ages tbh, I do have some somewhere, but oil just seems to prepare the bat better for knocking in.
The other thing I suppose Chris, is I�d probably have to use a separate mop with the wax, and my polisher is set up for the polish I use.
