Of the different mixtures I have all are made using pure linseed oil sold by Grumbacher. I've tried for years to find real boiled linseed oil without luck. I have no interest in the normal dried stuff that has a chemical drier added. I now see that Grumbacher is selling both a sun dried linseed oil and "Stand Oil". The stand oil looks like a dried linseed to me. My question is has anyone used either sun dried or stand oil?

Year ago I was swapping oil recipes with Dennis Potter and misread the part about only mixing up what you need at the time. I mixed a large batch, it turned to a jelly and matched the Adolph stock I'm working on now perfectly.
