IIRC, coconut oil doesn't dry so I would skip it (ditto mineral oil).


I am going to try on a test piece and leave it to see what happens.


I would think that any oil that dries and which is derived from
something edible would be fine. Personally, I use tung oil or boiled
linseed oil, both are easy to find. Yes, the BLO has dryers in it
but once cured it is fine.


Yeah, I've got those. There are a limited number of oils that
"dry", I found out walnut oil is one too.
