I haven't changed my story one bit about your lie that there is NO GUN REGISTRATION in New Zealand. The only thing that has been deleted was that particular thread. All of my other comments on the matter since then, with post numbers, dates, and times are still here.
Bill you will see on my post ##544258 that the argument we were having was about the 3% number, not at all if NO GUNS were REGISTERED like you keep lying about. That post was on 4/22/19 nearly a month ago. Yet you feel if you keep repeating your lie it will be true. Here is the link. I did not say NO GUNS were REGISTERED. Please find a quote saying so....you can not.

Do you include “Red oil” in your indictment?
Certainly. And most definitely with a wood like beech that is notorious for uneven stain absorption. I find it much more controllable to use either a home-brewed alcohol based alkanet stain or Behlen's SolarLuxe prior to applying my final finish. But if your unconventional furniture and cabinet finishing techniques give you the look you want on a gunstock, go for it.
Oh, I'm not recommending Japanese Shou Sugi Ban to gussy up this beech stock either, although that technique made some nice tool handles when I finished them. Too much potential for a bad result for a first try on a rifle.
Absolutely nothing unconventional with red oil or adding alkenet directly into a modified oil finish. Duane Weibe had a wonderful pictorial on his website for years on how to use this technique. I have used this method for many years myself and never once needed to sand off the finish. The beauty of this method is that when you cut back using rotten stone and the colored finish as a lube you do not get light colored areas. Nothing at all wrong with an alcohol based stain and the method you use but it is hardly the only acceptable method of obtaining a quality stock finish.
The whole thread:

Boy have I enjoyed showing you to be a completely disingenuous liar today. Take care Bill.
