They give you their secrets

Any other post here that tells you anything else does not work. No youtube video's or any other B/S doesn't work. Just linseed oil.

You can use a heat gun and then apply 303 protectant on a regular basis so that it won't fade easily.

One half equal parts.

I used denatured alcohol to clean first.

Thanks for the tips!
