Feast ajnd Watson Scandanavian oil
It's along time since I have posted but I have a question about Feast and Watson Scandanavian oil. I have used this product in the past with very good success and so decided to use it again on a restorastion project.
We have a nest of tables made from Imbuia that my wife brought with her from Brasil. The finish was/is a dark varnish which has become a bit jaded. I decided to strip only the tops of the tables and leave the legs and frames dark. The stripping was done use a ROS and I had a really good surface to work with. The first application of oil has gone on satisfactorily but, due to the weather here at present, the curing has not been as it should be.
While this first coat is OK it has some slight tackiness in very small patches on two of the tops. I am wondering if applying some thinner with a rag will help the curing and if adding thinner to the oil with curing of the second coat.
Many thanks for any information you may give.
Excuse the large print but my fading eyesight forces me to take this route. I am seeing an opthalmologist tis week about as cataract and the possibilities for some corrective work on the lens.

just as a heads up, you can actually hold down the ctrl key and use your mouse scroll wheel to adjust the size/zoom on your monitor very quickly

The Feast Watson oil is usually applied, let to sit for a little while and then rubbed off with a cloth before it gets too tacky. It is not really meant to be a finish that is applied and let to dry like varnish/lacquer etc.
