Should You Buff Rubio Monocoat?

Don't do anything you can't finish within 15 minutes. Any longer than that and the finish becomes hard to remove. Once coated, buff the finish in using a white pad on a sander or manually with a white scotch bright pad. This step not only helps spread the finish but also helps drive it deeper into the wood.

Do you have to buff Rubio monocoat?

Rubio says you can come back with a clean white pad on your buffer and buff the piece immediately after wiping off excess oil. This is optional, and is said to help bring out more sheen.

Should I apply a second coat of Rubio monocoat?

Because the product will not bond to itself, multiple coats are not needed. On softer species like walnut, a second application may be necessary to make sure that all areas have fully had the opportunity to react with the oil.
