REFRESH YOUR WOODWORK
If you should ever want to refresh your woodwork here’s how… There are two finishes I use. Most are linseed oil but others have a white wax finish. For the linseed oil, mix up boiled linseed oil and a little turps then with a rag, rub it all over. With a second clean rag, wipe the excess off and leave it to dry for a day or so. Store used linseed rags in an airtight container or burn straight away. For the white wax finish I use white Osmo oil wax combination. This comes in white, clear and various other colours, you might prefer to use clear as it will keep getting whiter with each application. Or any other clear wax polish will do, rubbed in all over. One coat should do it!
Three Legged Stools
