Road finishes refer to the final surface treatments applied to roads, which can include various materials and techniques to enhance durability, skid resistance, and aesthetics. Common types of road finishes include asphalt, concrete, gravel, and chip seal, each chosen based on factors like traffic volume, climate, and budget. These finishes help protect the underlying structure, improve vehicle traction, and provide a smooth driving experience. Additionally, road finishes can impact maintenance needs and the lifespan of the roadway.

This site is excellent in explaining various problems with oily woods (like Wenge) and how to solve them, here is an excerpt and the site:The oils create two main problems. # When oil based finishes like varnish, polyurethane, Danish oil finishes, and others are applied over the wood, the finish sometimes takes a very long time to dry. All of these type of oil based finishes dry by absorbing oxygen. The natural oils and resins contained in exotic woods will slow down the drying time by retarding the absorption of oxygen into the finish. Sometimes, if you happen to get stuck with a very oil piece of wood, the finish may stay tacky for weeks.# Adhesion. While other finishes like nitrocellulose lacquers, pre-catalyzed lacquers and water based finishes dry better over oily woods, the oils may prevent these finishes from adhering properly to the raw wood.Below, I have included a few different types of finishes and finishing techniques that I have had success with, but first, before applying any finish, you must perform the following steps to remove any oils that may be on the surface of the wood. * http://www.woodworking.com/wwtimes_oilywoods.cfm
