Hi Doug, I know it's an old thread, but I wondered if you might elaborate on this one a little bit. > A thin layer of drywall compound fills pours too. Easily sanded smooth and > takes color great. > Doug Mahard What kind of procedure would you use to apply the compound? I was just wondering how the finished product might look. On my finishing projects to date, I've used a black or dark brown wood filler to fill the pores, which gives a nice contrast and character to the wood. If I used drywall compound, would it tend to stain lighter or darker than the surrounding mahogany? Or would it be pretty much the same color? Could I add a coloring agent to the drywall compound that wouldn't interfere with it's hardening? I was talking to a buddy of mine that does a lot of refinishing, and he asked if I would inquire about it further. And since it might be of interest to others, I decided to post it on the list. Any input? I look forward to hearing from you. Best wishes, Brian Trout Quarryville, PA btrout@desupernet.net
