Andy135 Posted March 16, 2014 Report Share Posted March 16, 2014 Having previously used Tru-Oil to refinish a few gunstocks I thought I'd give CCL a try based on some posts from other PW'ers who've used it. I'm using it on a nice AYA Yeoman with some decent figuring on the stock (rare for a Yeoman, I know). Not finished the process yet but early indications are good. I'm impressed with the ease of use of the CCL oil, much less viscous than Tru-Oil and more forgiving, but will take quite a lot longer to finish the process (more stages). That said, if it's worth doing, it's worth doing right. I'll post up some pics once the stock is done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent Posted March 16, 2014 Report Share Posted March 16, 2014 he full kit is ok, using the grain sealer speeds things up though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westley Posted March 16, 2014 Report Share Posted March 16, 2014 It is the only one that I will use, having tried most. The Tru-Oil is OK for a quick fix, but not for the best finish. Look forward to photo's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zx12rash Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 I refinish a fair few stocks. I find blending my own oils is best. BLO heavy blend will give you grainier pop. Ccl is fine but you pay a lot for some alkanet oil (darkens the grain and reddens the wood) some hardener and a blo mix. Could get that all seperate for the same price but would make loads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon1979 Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 I was advised to use cc walnut finish on my sako by the importers, to help seal and protect the stock At Simon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
