You need to have your model UVed first then check if your norms are facing the same way(in the panel under lighting turn of two sided lighting)if some are showing as black they are facing the wrong way, with the mesh selected go to mormals then conform......dave

I do not understand your question. I have no idea what you mean by "apply far"

yes seriously! Far means a long distance away. Is there a reason I should have assumed he meant Fur? Furthermore, what does the title "Normalize Poly Surface" have to do with Maya FUR? I had no idea what he was on about until you mentioned FUR.
