Can I use home made reviver on oak?

[el_Pedr0]

I've previously made a reviver according to a top secret recipe shared below.

Can I use this to clean Oak that has previously been finished with Danish oil?

The oak and finish are in great condition, but a bit dusty in parts and also has some remants of brown packaging tape stuck to it. The sticky bits from the tape in particular will need more than just soapy water.

I'm planning on applying the reviver with a green scouring pad, and then wiping dry straight away with kitchen paper.

Thanks!

I did not know you could buy ammonia in shops, I have just had a quick look, it seems what you can buy is just under 10% mine is industrial 33%. So the answer is yes you can use it. So if you are going down the road of making your own reviver here is my recipe. All measurements are approximate.

83% raw linseed oil
10% white spirit
5% meths
2% ammonia

This is a basic mix and can have a grit like rotten stone or pumice added for extra bite on some finishes or the meths and ammonia content increased.
