Been building a set of kitchen cabinets. Black cherry. Still have a large island with a maple butcher block top and glass doored overhead cabinets to do.
This is just a tung oil first coat. The tung oil penetrates, brings out the grain and sets the surface fibbers, this gets sanded out with 320 grit then hand rubbed varnish for a top coat.

Not metal work but at least there's pictures.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
