You go to all the trouble and the knowhow to put a traditional finish on a gun stock, but if you dont want to go to all that trouble that is your choice and True Oil is always available.
Maybe I mis-communicated. I certainly didn't mean to be disagreeing. In fact, after reading your post on traditional finishing, I printed it out and bought all the ingredients that I didn't already have on hand. But your last post seemed to be suggesting that the traditional finishing methods should be abandoned in favor of "looking forward".
Before I dumped my copal and talc in the trash, I thought I should ask you for a clarification.
(I'll switch to a poly based finish when I decide to use my gun for double duty as a boat paddle).
