hello,
we have been building a house that is almost ready to occupy, and some time ago (after posting on this forum) we coated the exposed oregon beams with Organoil. It brought out the colour nicely. We liked it so much we have had the kitchen made of oregon. But we don't want to use oil on it, we want to use something that is more protective and waterproof. However a test of clear polyeurethane showed that it doesn't bring out the colour like the oil did on the beams, and we would like it to match. Does anyone have any suggestions to try?
regards
Glenn
