TR4/4A What kind of wood and finish for the dashboard?

Share this page

I just used minwax gloss clear on it, no additional stain or oil underneath. I didn't expect it to get so much darker and show the grain so well, but it did, I suppose the wood darkened a bit with age, then more still when the poly was applied. I am not a wood expert or anything, though I have stained some trim and furniture in the past, like I said, just one of those happy, easy and worked out well things we get once in a blue moon when working on our LBCs.
