Danish oil is mostly 'boiled' linseed with japan driers and other catalytic metals. Watco is the best known and is really great. DON'T follow the directions. Put on a heavy coat, really flood the surface and leave it to dry. I know, it's a mess. Leave it. 24 hours later, put on another heavy coat and wait 5 minutes while the first coat dissolves. Sand this mess with 220 grit garnet paper into a pasty glop. Oh it's really yucky now which is perfect! Especially for open grained woods like Oak. Leave it to dry! That's right! The pores are now completely filled and then some. Next day rub off the excess with 000 steel wool. You're done. Wait until you see it. Of course your hands will be tinted for days. Oh yeah, the left over rags are subject to spontaneous combustion. Store them in water. Better yet, leave them in the sun until completely dry and toss tham in the rubbish. Then they can fire up the landfill which is probably burning anyway. EPA be damned, these are speakers! What's a 710 Blonde doing in an auto parts store, anyway?
