Danish oil is Linseed oil with stain. If you want clear Danish oil you want Linseed oil. The non boiled kind. Plus the Tung oil that you have is not Tung oil. It actually does not contain any tung oil. It just looks like tung oil plus it is super toxic. Same with the Danish oil. Your best bet is getting 100% Tung oil or plain or Boiled Linseed oil. If you don't want them to be tacky mix with either Laquer thinner or Mineral Spirits. If you want a non toxic drying enhancer use orange oil. If you use then straight they can take up to 3 days to dry.

@Norbingel 6 месяцев назад

Mineral spirits aren't common (or cheap) where I'm from so I was wondering if Lacquer thinner would do as a substitute. Thank you for confirming it.

@holyredskins 3 года назад

FYI, I work with 2 part epoxy on a bunch of projects. That being said, if I'm not mistaken epoxy mica powder can also be used as a stain pigment in a much wider variety of colours. Its worth a look see, maybe. Keep these vids coming.

@BuildDadBuild 3 года назад

@tweevers2 Год назад

The Danish oil in 'natural' finish is probably the clear danish oil you are looking for...a side note though,they also have an even darker one called 'black walnut', as well as a cherry, red mahogany,Fruitwood,light mahogany,golden oak colors

@elizabethdickerson1136 3 года назад

Ok thanks for your help this weekend.... I ended up burning again and then I also did a good wipe down with mineral spirits. It absolutely helped with the stain I didn’t like. Definitely did the trick. I then was able to thin down the Tung oil with just a little mineral spirits. It definitely helped with the oil soak in and actually dry. I had put on two coats of Tung oil and it was not drying. I think I had a lot larger ridges from the hand brushing technique. This is why the oil was not drying it was pooling in areas. So I feel like you should definitely this out the oil. Unless you have sanded your final project. I also want to say the Tung oil bro gas out the color contrast so freaking amazingly. It made the project a 10 out of 10.... I’m very proud of my table and I have told everyone and shown so many pictures you would think I had a baby this weekend 😏

@MDAdams72668 3 года назад

100% pure tung oil is awesome but for fast drying, you do need to cut it with an aromatic. I use it on cutting boards and there I do not want any "chemicals" so I just apply sparingly and bake dry in the oven

I've experimented with Sho-Sugi-Ban finishes for guitars, using water based aniline wood dye for color. When it comes to oil finishes, I've found linseed tends to dry gummy, while tung dries soft. It seems there are only a hand full of active ingredients in wood finishes: IE tung, linseed, lac (lacquer and shellac), poly, enamel, acrylic, and mineral oil. Many products are one or more of these, often combined with solvents and/or drying agents. For raw wood such as sho-sugi-ban, I'm currently playing around with water based aniline wood dye for color, and USP grade 90 viscosity mineral oil as a finish. Results so far are very encouraging.

@BuildDadBuild 2 года назад

Great info! Thanks for sharing. Cheers

@johnlee7085 Год назад

I’ve heard that “drying gummy” comes from leaving excess linseed oil on the surface vs wiping off the excess within 30 minutes.

@normbarrows Год назад

@@johnlee7085 my results are based on observations of the buildup on the containers. You don't usually get 1/8" buildup of linseed or tung on a guitar. The point is that you're finishing the guitar with something that is "gummy" (linseed) or "soft" (tung). I don't use linseed or tung at all anymore. Spray lacquer is my preferred finish these days.

I have used boiled linseed oil and many of my outdoor projects (wishing wells, planter boxes, raised flower beds) and love it. Love the color it brings out in the wood. I have a length of sucker rod that I drap my rags over to let them dry outside of my shop and have never had an issue with them bursting into flames. Also, I got the restorer for Christmas also but Sunday was the 1st time that I uad to be able to use it. I was stripping a twin bed down and the restorer was awesome. But like you said, wear a mask because that bad boy kicks up a dust cloud and makes a mess but gets the job done quickly. That was my very 1st time to do something in the shop since early December and I loved being out there, eventhough my weak body paid the price for it later that night.

@Hapotecario 3 года назад

Hey man, your videos are great! The work you make looks obscenely good. I should start drinking too when I am working. But the rotating metal disks of death scare the shit out of me. I guess they think about those color variations to apply on fresh pine or common white looking wood like that. Even then maybe you cant really spot much of a difference. It's just the wet look that always comes on and those color gradations are not noticeable at all over charred wood. have a question for you. about the cupping... I am doing six big mirror wooden frames for bathroom vanities. I want to apply this technique. Should I char the frame pieces first then miter them and assembly the frame with glue or can I char the assembled piece?

@BuildDadBuild 3 года назад

You might want to try and burn first. When you're using thinner stock it's not a bad idea to start with a wider piece, burn and then cut your smaller stock out of that. Or if you want to burn it assembled you might want to consider using some metal reinforcement before you burn. Cheers!

I applied teak oil to my charred boards which have fully dried over a week. Now I'm thinking of applying Defy extreme wood stain on them which I already have to make them more waterproof. I'm confused if the oil alone provides ultimate waterproofing which is why I'm thinking of doing that since these boards will be exposed to weather. What do you think/recommend?

@BuildDadBuild Год назад

The charring should make them quite waterproof on their own. The oil will increase that. Just make sure to reapply oil as needed.

BLO is inexpensive (buy a gallon), and it looks as good as any other finish. I'd love to see you test several different paste waxes and see if they are as similar as the oils you tested in this video.

@michaelroberts3883 3 года назад

To preserve the wood for a much longer period of time utilizing linseed oil (possibly others) is to apply it liberally after burning the wood then burn the oil into the wood again. This will thin the oil and let it soak into the exposed pores of the wood helping to internally saturate and seal the wood for years of outdoor use. Beekeepers actually boil their wood bee boxes in oil or wax to preserve it for a lifetime.

My two cents on Danish Oil...It's basically a mixture of BLO, Mineral Spirits, and Polyurethane, right? So if you think shampoo and conditioner combined or Polyshades is a counterintuitive or lazy or just plain bad idea, why use Danish Oil? I just mix BLO and mineral spirits to get the oil thinned to soak deeper. Do a couple coats, let it cure, then finish with a poly/mineral spirit mixture (don't waste your money on rubbing poly kids, make your own!) That's also "clear" in the context of this video.

Bit of clarification, all the oils you have here EXCEPT the linseed oil are not pure oils. They are mixtures of solvents/chemicals and have little to no oil of the type printed on front. Hence, "teak oil finish" rather than 100% teak oil. Especially with tung oil, if does not say 100% tung oil its something totally different. This also leads to people getting confused about application and dry time confusion/debates... because they are not putting on what they think they are. Something like a 100% tung oil with beeswax mixture is pretty awesome.

Honey that doesn't crust up when it dries is not honey. Or it might be a tiny bit of honey mixed with high fructose corn syrup (in the US). Tung oil that smells chemically- is not Tung oil, well maybe 5% is. Lots of stuff is added to tung unless it says pure tung oil. Pure tung takes a long time to dry.

If you're doing yakisugi, you should try tsubaki (camellia) oil. If not just because I was thinking of using it for something, but can't find any videos except in Japanese where its used for wood.

Awesome, can we seal with lacquer since the wood is for external use or oil alone is enough?! Thanks 🙏

@BuildDadBuild 2 года назад

Technically oil is good enough. But it has to be re-applied. Also if you stain or color the wood, it will fade in the sun. I usually recommend some sort of UV resistant topcoat if it's going to be in full son.

Linseed oil is tacky and collects dust more just saying. Teak is my fav. Old carpenters trick 2 gal bucket 1 qt teak oil to 1 qt rub on poly to 1 qt. denatured alcohol. Make sure you mix or shake it up about once week.
