Pen 'ala Dominic'

Yesterday I noticed that Dominic Greco joined our little group, so I had to post this. He and I corresponeded on pen finishes not to long ago, and I used that process on this pen. It's just a product from PSI called 'Gloss Sealer', a lacquer based friction drying sealer. Leaves a nice finish, less plasticy than a lot I've used. Leaves a warmer look. Wood is tulip.

Nice pen and a nice photo Rick. If you could brighten the space or the photo up you'd be able to see a bit more of the grain detail.

Chris, I brightened the pic a bit and you're right, I think. Now if you look, you can see there is some pink in the grain. Really a pretty wood.

Rick, that is a very good looking pen, and the wood quite nice too. What is the type or model of the pen kit? It seems to be a twist open&closed, yes?

Thanks Rick

Gil, this is a PSI 'Polaris' kit with satin chrome plating. There are other similar kits available by the other kit suppliers. The top twists to expose the ball point.

Is that the stuff they seller in the little silver metal rectagular shaped cans?

That's the stuff. They sell three formulas, Dominic had tried them all and recommended the Gloss Sealer. They kind of look old-fashioned, a plain can with a sticker on it. Works well though.
