It's the worst stuff on the planet and not recommended for woodturnings at all. You really should have asked BEFORE you bought the stuff...........Oh well........ Just kidding.......great stuff........ ;^) -- Regards, M.J. (Mike) Orr |

(I haven't gotten a bowl to a state that I'd consider putting finish on it yet.) Great stuff. No heavy metal driers, so easier on the human body. BELIEVE the part about THIN coats. Warming the oil makes it easier to use. And friction, when used on the lathe, should help. Patriarch |

Well, I did read the label. Is it really that bad? Why?
Anyway, I only bought a pint can. I guess I will try it on a small piece and decide for myself. Thanks. Barry "M.J." wrote in message ... "Barry N. Turner" wrote in message ...
