I have used Arrow Wood Finish on several stocks and really like the different effects I can achieve with it. But I have always just applied it with my palm and worked it until it was dry on the surface.
I have a stock I want to add some stain to. And I want to use the technique where you add a few drops of stain to a small quantity of Arrow Wood Finish, then use it for several coats until I get the darkening I desire. But I am trying to avoid having that much exposure to the stain. I know I can apply the Arrow Wood Finish with a cloth, but I don't know how to achieve the same drying without palm rubbing it in. I have considered a protective glove under a leather glove, or using a piece of leather instead of my palm. But not sure either will achieve what I want.
So do you have any experience of rubbing it until it is dry with anything other than your palm?
