To those interested on my finish:
1st coat-1 part Linseed oil, 1 part oil based urethane, 1 part mineral spirits, 2 tbl.spoons dark stain. Let dry for 2 or 3 days
2nd and 3rd coats- 1 part mineral spirits, 2 parts urethane. Light hand sand between coats.
Tomorrow is 3rd and final coat |
Boiled linseed oil? I am going to try this finish on a rustic bench I built from scraps I found in a slash pile that needs to be refinished every year. I'd like to try your secret recipe to try to create a more uniform finish. Colors here are all over the map using something called 'frog finish' the last few years.
(This is actually square and smooth to the touch but a trick of the light makes it look like it's very textured and wonky)
