    In my ignorance, I thought tru oil was... Oil and my stock would be oily, In a way it is oil, but this liquid dries just like varnish! Best for a glossy hard finish, particularly on water-based stain! Extremely sticky, so use newspapers and don't touch anything until after. Make sure to use a solvent to clean your fingers when don! Multi coats are easy to apply, and runs are few and easily fixed. Done six coats on a stock, and still, have 3/4 bottle left. First Birchwood product is happy with!

    I've been using Tru Oil for a couple of decades now, and frankly, there is no other wood finish that performs the way this stuff does. I've finished wood projects with about every brand and type of wood finish available. Tru Oil is not just another oil finish like the big box linseed, Danish, teak, or tung oils. It belongs to a specialized class of oil finishes known as "polymerized tung oils." To create this kind of product is a process the involves heating it in an oxygen-free environment. The result is an oil that dries like a polymer -- virtually an oil-based product that performs like a polyurethane. If you've ever finished with straight tung oil or even boiled linseed oil you know occasionally, you will put on a coat that gets gummy and never dries. This is usually due to environmental factors that are sometimes hard to manage, like the temp and humidity. Polymerized oils are the solution to that problem, but manufacturers typically don't like to make this class of finish because it is not stable once it has been exposed to oxygen. There are just a few products on the market that are actual polymerized tung oil, and this is one of them. Buy it in the small bottles or re-package it to remove all the air from the containers, and it will last a little longer for you. I've heard of guys that fill the jar with marbles as they use it to keep the air out. Similar products are typically only available through very specialized woodworker supply houses, but you can find Tru Oil practically anywhere in outdoor sporting goods departments. Performance? I've finished a cherry gun cleaning box with this that has traveled half the year since 2006. It gets soaked with a myriad of harsh cleaning chemicals, solvents (including brake cleaner!), and every other kind of abuse you can imagine. The box is looking tired, but overall the Tru Oil finish on it has held up beautifully. If it can protect my cleaning box, it will do excellent on your firearm, musical instrument, or exceptional furniture project. Hints on use: apply and rubdown your sealer and filler coats first. Buff them out with 0000 Steel Wool before starting the Tru Oil coats then just oil-dry-buff until you get your desired finish. As little as two layers can make a durable glossy finish, but I like to take it out to 4-6 or even 8 for a deep luster. For guns, I prefer the satin finish from buffing it out after the last coat, but then I'm a softy for that old-world look when I'm building a new rifle stock. I don't want it to look like it just came from some factory paint booth and this is the perfect product for what I want to achieve.
