I bought some Teak Oil and some Danish Oil at the weekend to use on my turned pieces I turned a shallow bowl 9ins wide by 2ins deep in Parana Pine to try out the oils and sanded down to 1200 grit.
When it came to the finish I was nervous of putting the oil onto the wood?
Reasons
1 I have never used oil before
2 I did not know which oil to use
3 Didn't know if I would get a shine with the oil
4 Did not know if the oil would leave a residue after it had been standing on furniture for some time
So I deciced to use Acrylic spray like I usually do to retain the shine
HELP?
How do I use the oils?
Which oil do I use?
Whats the finnish like i.e. does it shine?
Will it leave a residue?
