I will be turning a box elder pen and pencil set for a friend shortly, and he asked about using a polyurethane or polycrylic finish on it to protect the finished set from finger oils and such.
I've never done that before on wood pens - any thoughts or comments on the idea? Other suggestions?
I normally use EEE-Ultra Shine and Shellawax Cream for my wood pens.
TIA

A very protective finish is Super Glue on a rag applied to the spinning wood. Polish out with very fine grit pads.
Yes, this comes out very nice. I use the gel glue so as to reduce splatter. Sucks when you glue your eyelids shut...

No sweat, Jim. Just soak your face in acetone! (Tearing up just thinking about it...)
