John,

You're probably ok with the mineral spirits. The only thing the T-10 may do different is change the drying time. I don't know what's in T-10, but I do know there are some thinners that extend drying time and some that reduce drying time. I don't know if T-10 does either, I just used it because it was the recommended thinner.

Ross

: Thanks for the advice - I'll try thinner coats. I also just checked John
: Michne's web site, and he has info. about using Meguair's etc. That'll be
: my back up if I have to rub the finish out. I am just using Odorless
: Mineral Spirits as a thinner, so I don't know if I'm making another rookie
: mistake.

: Pete,

: I'm sure Jamestowndistributors.com has the T-10 (I got the flagship there).
: If you can't find a convienient source and really need it, I'll run down
: the street and express mail it to you.They may be temporarily off line, as
: a passenger ship dragged anchor in 150' of water and broke both electrical
: supply cables to the island. We just got power back after 18 hours.
