Looks like Mr Lemon or his staff have incorrectly sent the hardener/accelerator.
Dan, whereabouts are you?
Brilliant.
I’ll get it sent back then and order from another source.
Just off J30 M1.
thanks guys!

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.

Wait, I’ve read contrary to the above, that directed oils are no good and linseed oil is the way to go?
running off this thread here:

I am happy to be told otherwise though, it’s all a learning process.

that rail gun is 16 Joules, which I believe falls below the uk 12ftlbs air rifle law, so could be legal 🤷♂️

Should be oil finish.
Welcome to Pigeon Watch.
Thank you for the fast reply.
it’s the finish I was hoping for, I will buy some linseed oil and try it out.
Also, thank you for the welcome! It looks a very knowledgeable forum!!

That DVRNSALE website appears dodgy, I can’t find anything on them on Google so I’d go direct to Barbour / another well known resales if I was you.
