I never found the need for accelerator. Like Brian says it dries in seconds anyway. Any thin or medium CA will do. I prefer medium.
I also never found the need for BLO, just makes the fumes worse IMHO. I find three or four coats is usually enough.
As for polishing it any fine abrasive will do. Whatever you use first needs to be coarse enough to remove any ridges but not so coarse as to remove the finish (1000 grit or so micromesh or rhynogrip is what I use) My final polish of preference has up to now been burnishing cream but having just tested some Farecla profile 500 and I can see why Alex recommends it. No doubt Brian's toothpaste does the job too. It is after all a fine abrasive.
