Another newbie question. I just refinished an old baby grand piano and have some Sam Maloof's Poly/Oil and Oil/Wax finishes.. would either of those be good/bad/ehh on briar for a simple finish?

I know the Oil/Wax says that it isn't preferred when being exposed to heat.. and pipes do get warm.. but not sure if I should just keep those for furniture or try them on a pipe.

Poly/oil or oil/wax finish?
Re: Poly/oil or oil/wax finish?
Generally speaking, if it's not food safe and heat resistant it doesn't belong on a pipe. And yes, you can eat shellac if that's your thing...
I don't care for petroleum distillates or plastics in my smoke, either, and both of those are in the poly/oil.

That is what I thought... no loss really. Thanks!
