This bowl is from a rough turned bowl I got from @Jonkou Thanks again John!
John and others, have you ever experienced these black lines or streaks in ash? After finish turning the bowl, I started noticing them but assumed they would sand out. I sanded up to 400, then back down to 180. Still had the streaks, so I backed down to 120 and even power sanded a bit in the spots where the streaks are. This is now sanded entirely back up to 240, but I'm not sure if there is a way to get rid of them or if it's just the nature of ash.
Second question for Ash Lovers: What's your food safe finish of choice?
Thanks in advance everyone!
