Fortunately, as the tung dried, I was able to lightly brush the powder flakes off of the stock and had no ill effect. At first, i though t I was going to have to scrape the buttstock off and start all over again. It's going to take another two or three applications to get everything even/consistent from the front to the back of the stock, and is going to look nice when finished. The handguard is finishe dnow with four applications. I keep wanting to say coats of tung oil, but I'm putting it on lightly, fighting the urge to just dunk it in a vat and pull it out amd let it drip dry. Patience.......must have patience.....
