    tru-oil recipe

    I have tried this mix ratio but it was too thin. Tru-oil if thicker and goes on pretty smooth. It dries after about an hour so it does not have too much Tung or BOL in it. I am going to try a 3,3,1 ratio to see how that comes out. If that is still too thin, I may try 2,3,1 as a ratio. Gary Eley

    They say they have it and you order it and then they contact you and cancel, very frustrating!!

    tru-oil recipe

    The only problem temporarily is that Birchwood Casey was sold to GSM, in Texas, (a gun supplies company) and Texas has had a bad snow/ice storm wiping out their electricity so Tru-Oil cannot be bought anywhere and may will not be brought back for several months.

    tru-oil recipe

    This is very close to the old traditional 3,2,1, formula for Mineral spirits, varnish, and BOL.
