Just a safety note on using linseed oil. My neighbor almost burned his house down from using linseed oil with a rag. He had left a rag soaked with linseed oil on a work bench in his garage and later during the night it started burning. Here's how it happens: when linseed oil is exposed to air, it combines with the oxygen molecules. This chemical reaction creates heat. If the linseed oil is on something like a cotton rag, it can catch fire at as low as 120 degrees -- with no outside spark. The first thing that the fire chief asked him was did he have any linseed oil in the garage.
