I often use a skew ironed Record #712 for cross grain work on raised panels, although I quite fancy test driving Veritas offering. 🙂 Other than that, the type of rebate plane I use varies depending on the work in hand, but you can quite often opt for a plough/combination plane, or fillister #78/#078/#778. You seldom find exposed cross grain rebates, but maintaining a sharp edge and fine blade setting genuinely works wonders whenever a finer finish is desired, plus a finer cut tends to make rebating a comparatively effortless exercise in comparison to using a heavy cut. 🙂
