Any suggestions for stock oil?
« on: December 02, 2008, 08:40:28 AM »
I was recently very fortunate to find a BSA Lightning XL with the walnut stock for a great price. It had been on display for a while - Any suggestions for bringing out the beautiful finish of the wood?

I thought this was very good information, here in our own library!

Danish oil gives really nice results, and really protects as well. Must be rubbed on in thin coats to avoid too much gloss. Also Maccari's RLO.

Get all of the dust off and paste wax and polish it with a cloth.  A lot of woodworkers use wax as a final step.
