Thanks for the heads up on BLO.
I’ve used truoil in the past but never really cared for the look I got using it.
A mate of mine suggested danish oil, anyone ever heard of it or used it?
I have about 70% of the old finish stripped off as hope to have it completely clean tonight.
Satx I love the red cherry look too! Incidentally bought some the other day
Various oil finishes will work reasonably well, but all oil-based finishes will absorb water vapor faster than bare wood. They are far from waterproof and most will turn white if wetted.
Danish oil is generally low in solids, high in solvents, extremely easy to apply, and very slow to build, with poor waterproof characteristics. It is a poor choice for a stock finish IMO&E.
