old tung oil finish got tacky
some 15 years ago I used a commercial tung oil finish (pure except for
dilution) according to instructions. Had wonderful results on walnut and maple. So 15 or or years later the finish got very tacky ( was indoors al the time and out of the sun). Why did this happen and how do I get rid of the stickiness? |

If that doesn't work, perhaps try other commonly used wood finishing solvents, such as lacquer thinner. walnut was worse than maple, but both bad. Mineral spirits do not clean it up, nor does naptha. The brand was Southerland-Wells ( forgot spelling) Thanks -- posted from http://www.homeownershub.com/woodwor...ky-429138-.htm using HomeOwnersHub's Web, RSS and Social Media Interface to home and garden related groups |

Sure I occasionly stop at a Starbucks but I don't find their coffee really any better than Panera or any other coffee shop. However, I have quite a few friends and family members who swear they can't live without Starbucks. A few years ago Dunkin Donuts started remodeling and changing their image. Now I prefer to go there for a good ole' cup of joe; no fancy stuff. This year I found the perfect gift there for a few of the Starbuckers in my clan. A shirt that says, "Friends don't let Friends drink Starbucks". I figure I'll get a few laughs and a few shirts thrown back but it will be worth it. `Casper |

I've tried it 3 or 4 times at different places because I couldn't believe it was consistently that bad - it was. I wouldn't buy it at 50 cents a cup with free refills :-). Back when I was working and had money, I used to buy various premium beans and grind them myself. So I think I can claim to know good coffee a little better than the Folgers aficionados :-). -- This message was for rec.woodworking - if it appears in homeownershub they ripped it off. |
