- In this video I show how I make a High Gloss Polishing Paste for wood turning. It could be used for flat work as well.
Link for How I make Abrasive Paste below.
This is for polishing only. It is not a sanding abrasive paste
See the link below for my abrasive paste.
I call it Papa's Polishing Paste or PPP Triple P
Very simple to make and very inexpensive.
It is best to use a soft paper towel to apply and buff out.
I also have a video for abrasive paste which I have been told works as well as some of the store bought products. I am thrifty so I have never bought any of the products like Yorkshire Grit or Hampshire Sheen.

• Make a simple Sanding ...
BE SURE TO ONLY USE FOOD SAFE INGREDIENTS IF YOU PLAN ON USING IT FOR FOOD USE. MY TURNINGS ARE NOT FOR FOOD USE
Looking for a good paste already made then I recommend trying the ACKS product.
I think it is the best product of this type I have tried.
I RECOMMEND ACKS PASTE AND IT IS FOOD SAFE

Thank you!
Beautiful work! The bowl turned into a gorgeous piece of art! The wax you made sure did work on this piece; it’s nice and calm, yet has a amazing shine. Absolutely gorgeous! Bravo!
Thank you very much Mary. I think this is one I gave as a wedding gift and they loved it.
Take care,
Gary
I will never be able to thank you enough for the special gift of Triple P. Please accept my heartfelt thanks for your gift!
Well thank you very much and enjoy the use of it and the fun of making it yourself. After all its all about "StuffUCanMake"
Gary
Thanks Gary for the info much appreciated! I think I like your more than many other turners on CZcams! Happy Turning!👍🏼💫🪵
Thank you Douglas, that is very kind of you to say.
Take care my friend,
Gary
Another great addition to your video. I've been sort of binging your videos and am learning a lot. You, Sir, are quite talented!
Thank you very much Brad. I appreciate your comments.
Gary
Thank you Papa good lesson. Boy is that purple beautiful. You are an awesome turner.
Thank you very much Gerald. Unfortunately I did not film that one. I did make a similar but that was with my first camera which was not that good. So I doubt if I will upload it. I will just make another one like it.
Thanks again .
Gary
Thanks a million Gary, lt will be my go to polish from this day forward.👍👍👍
Thank you Jim glad it was helpful for you.
Gary
This also works well on end grain for your outdoor deck, stairs and so on. It really seals the end grain from water. Just brush it on while hot. I never thought to use it as a polish, will give it a go. Thanks for the video
Well now that is a great idea. Thanks for the tip.
Gary
Thanks for the tip Papa, I'm going to try this out next time I go into my workshop.
Sounds good Ron I am sure you will like it.
👍Thanks for sharing Gary. 👍🇺🇸
No problem and thank you for watching.
Gary
Thanks Gary Triple P so simple yet looks so effective
Thank you Steven. It works very well. I am working on another video where I show how it really shines on its own.
Gary
great stuff papa . really love the bowl . easy process the sanding paste is just as easy with a little elbow grease lol. you know the mixing and what not . good job sir
Thank you Dark it is about the same as trying to get the lumps out of your gravy. If you can do that then this is easy money...LOL
Thanks for watching.
Gary
Thanks for the info I have furniture that needs polishing. Doing it that way will be a good way to have something that's fragrance free and that I'm not allergic too.
Thank you Judith and I just used it on a flat surface myself. Works good.
Take care,
Gary
Impressed ! Lovely finish Gary . Another to do on my list lol
Cheers mate, Bram
Thank you Bram and it is as easy as it looks.
I like to cook meals from scratch but this is about as easy as heating water for tea LOL
THANKS BUDDY
Gary
Thanks to you Gary.
Thank you very much Sony I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Gary
I guess I thought it would still have an abrasive in it, just finer than you used in the sanding paste. But, it sure works so that's the objective! Thanks Gary!
Phil
Well that is a good thought. Extra Extra fine abrasive paste. And it still has the beeswax. For sure this is easier than using beeswax from a stick and rubbing against the bowl.
I have never tried that and have never wanted to.
It is fun to experiment....I think I was supposed to be a mad scientist...but in stead I ended up a Old Man.
Thanks Phil,
Gary
Thanks for sharing this. I've been getting into making my own finishes lately and I'm looking forward to giving this a try.
Thank you Trent I really enjoy making what I can and have been playing around with some finishes. I mix my own wipe on poly. Basically thinning it down to what I like to use. I found I should only make a small batch because it gels up fast if it is not used right away.
Thanks again,
Gary
Good stuff, Gary. Thanks.
Thank you Bill I am happy you like it.
Gary
Thank you very much. Very simple and with great results!
Thank you Doug. Yes very simple to make and simple to use.
Thanks again for watching.
Gary
1st to comment. Hi Gary, Thanks for sharing your "Secret" recipe. That finish is extraordinary. Will be making this along with the abrasive paste. Cheers, Huw
Thank you very much Huw. Thanks for being the first to comment. Mums the word it is a Secret! LOL
Oh me and my big mouth. Seriously I hope everyone can benefit from this.
Thanks again my friend,
Gary
Thanks for this video!
Thank you very much Carol I hope it helps.
Gary
Precioso me encanta ojalá tuviera yo estas maderas que tenéis vosotros enorabuena 👍🇪🇸
Thank you!
Excellent video. Thanks Papa
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching.
Take care,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947. I made up a batch yesterday and it worked perfectly. Thx again
Nice! thak's for sharing this man!
Thank you Chris I am glad you like it. And thanks again for watching.
Gary
Here's an update so I did your mix but I added some rottenstone in it, boy what a shine, and if you use a felt pad it gives a higher shine. The finish I use is mohawk pre cat lacquer
That sounds great William. Have you seen my video for making the Abrasive Paste. I use Diatomaceous earth in it which is like rotten-stone.
The link for that video is in the description of this video.
I am interested in trying pre cat lacquer I will have to give it a try.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Gary
Cool stuff, Gary!
Billy
Thanks Billy. I thought it was worth showing.
Woodglut is a good solution for every woodworker.
Thank you and for some very good solutions how about taking a look at all my videos on my channel. Thanks for the consideration and look forward to know how much you liked them.
@@ThePapa1947 Awesome to hear that ❤️ I knew you'd like it 🤘
Thank you for the tutorial.
Thank you I hope it helps.
Gary
Thanks Gary, I will make a batch. You know i've already named you paste. I call it "47paste". But, being it is yours "PPP" is cool with me. Take care, Larry
Larry 47paste is great for the abrasive paste. PPP for polishing or P47 might be good.
I ordered the LED tealight but not very bright. Maybe you could get me a link for what you got.
Thanks for watching.
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 Pretty sure the ones I got were on e-bay. I sent you an e-mail with the link. See ya, Larry
@@ThePapa1947 Oh, one more thing. How about "47wax" or "47polish"?
Perfect....either one.works for me. But maybe 47polish might be more fitting.
Then you can use it as 47release "agent"
Nice, a little different than my recipe, I added a little carnauba wax also.
That sounds like it would work wonders with the carnauba wax. Excellent tip. Thanks Tim,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 I call it Moonshine Polish. Love the name you gave it.
@@moonwoodworks4607 well I really like the name you gave yours. Very fitting!
Thanks for the info.
Thank you very much I appreciate your comment.
Gary
Thanks very much Garry, very interesting for me, but I have a little question: mineral oil, is with Parafine? or vaseline? because in France it could be one or other (perhaps tha doesn't mater, but if yo had the chemical composition, thanks to tell me if you can. I wish you a merry Christmas and a Happy new year. JL 1947
Thank you very much JL 1947! So the mineral oil I use is what you can get at the drug store or grocery store. It is what some people take when they are a bit stopped up..

That should help you see what it is.
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 Thank you Garry, I know that's: Paraffine oil , so I can try your interesting recipes.
@@jean-louishoules5198 great and you will like it.
Papa I’ve watched both videos you made about the sanding paste and polishing paste. Say Your doing a project, what makes you choose the PPP instead of the sanding paste and vs versa? Is it the material or the finish your trying for?
Hi Glen
The abrasive paste has grit in it so it is like using ultra fine sand paper. It really levels the lacquer out. The PPP is like using a high luster wax. I hope this helps explain your question. If not let me know.
Gary
Neither mineral oil or bees wax have a long lasting effect as a polish. I only use them on cutting boards that are to be cleaned and polished regularly. Have you tried using carnuba instead of bees wax in your mix?
I have not but sure will try it.
Thanks for the information.
Thanks for posting your recipe and process. Do you make an abrasive paste too?
Yes the link was at the end of the video. In the description I think.
Or you can look back about 5 of my videos.
Thanks for watching.
Gary
ThePapa1947 Found it! Looked right past it when I checked the first time. Thanks!
Oh by the way how did you make your abrasive paste
The link for the abrasive paste shows up at the end of the video and I also have it in the description. Let me know if you find it.
In the current state of our poor old World economies are essential. I do use one of Captain Eddie's finesse but widening the choice a little may well work for me. The whole World is will have lunatics in charge. I have my finger crossed on that one. I'm working through your splendid list on my phone now as a computer scamer wrecked the computer my family bought for me. I'm trying to trace a friend of mine that devoted a room in his home to attract scammers and passing the details to the authorities. All I know of him just now is he is high in the Scottish Highlands to minimise interference. He had some remarkable systems of his own design for his entrapment that was serving him we prior to his move. He has built search and kill equipment for a few of his colleagues. I wish him well. I'm still not out in my shed but I'm making plans and you methods siut my style. Thankyou.
Thank you Ron.
