Tru Oil Finish

[Bakersdozen]

I've hear of peeps diluting 50/50 with mineral turps but not gum turps

Yep, me too. I also vaguely recall reading that someone did it - on a rifle or woodworking forum I think it was. They said that gum turps gave a bit more of a sheen from memory Am just curious to see if I can use what I already have.

These days I tend to alternate between initial 4-6 coats full strength 'wet' coats then a light 1200 wet sand, followed by 50:50 diluted with turps for another

What say ye, Waz?
