    Make sure it is boiled linseed oil.

    But there are better compounds, CCL make the best in my opinion.

    It’s arrived…

     

    prior to applying, during the shake I read ‘no3 hardener’.

     

    Has the seller had me over and sent the wrong product in the box?!?

     

    I don’t want to apply until clarified.

    Yes, apply as little as possible, just a few drops on your fingertip will be enough. Spread it out on the stock and buff it in with the palm of your hand. Let it dry for a day and apply another few drops. You don’t want a layer of oil on top of the wood so if your stock feels sticky after a day or two, you applied too much. You can repeat this until the wood does not take anymore oil or you have aquired the desired finish.

     

     

    Brilliant stuff 👍

    Fine. this guy is a pro with many years of experience. I am just a guy who has refinished a few gunstocks.

    When it comes to finishing gunstocks there are many ways. Everyone seems to have his own way.

    I’m not trying to say you’re wrong. 
     

    far from it, I’m an absolute beginner when it comes to this and I welcome any help. 
     

    I wondered if that stalking forum guy was talking about oiling from bare wood, where as mine already has oil on it, so your method may make more sense.
