If you are going to use oak, then Danish oil is a good finish. It
doesn't come up too much above matt and is easily refinishable without
stripping. Easy to apply as well.

fumes are strong though so needs lots of ventilation while drying

fish industrially. The windmills are just a front.

Besides... what's the use of so called green products if they don't work?
