Back in 1970's, I spoke with the man who made Linspeed and asked the difference between Linspeed and Tru-Oil. He said that Linspeed was linseed based while Tru-Oil was a varnish.
I like them both but Linspeed can be slow to dry, and sometimes never, on old wood. Tru-Oil dries faster but is not easily rubbed in because of that trait. I have often mixed them and regularly mix Tru-Oil with Tung oil varnishes.
Mr. Flynn;
Good to see a post from the Master himself, and to know that you are still at the bench. I have often said to individuals that James Flynn does the best leather covered recoil pads in the world, bar none, even whoever does Purdey's for them.
