I don't use linseed, but a commercial mix (LIberon's) based on tung
instead. I find that linseed is colour unstable over time and prone
to extreme yellowing in a year or so.

Thanks for all of the advice -- the comment about linseed yellowing
concerns me a great deal...have others also had this problem? If so,
is there a method to minimize the discoloration? Also, when you
experienced the yellowing, was it over fumed white oak or non-fumed
wood?
