Westlake Market, Birchwood Casey Tru-Oil Gun Stock Finish with Two Disposable Absorbent Pads

This provides a really nice durable finish.

This oil produces a high gloss and is impressive of how well it works. Elbow grease and patience are necessary but if you follow the directions , the results are astounding. Brings out the grain in wood.

Have done multiple stocks and forgrips. Apply thin, let dry wet sand and repeat. Very happy with the outcome

Excellent product. Builds glossy film quickly, fills pores with light sanding or steel wool between coats. Easy to apply with just a gloved finger dipped in bottle and rubbed on. Works best with very thin coats. Dried in a few hrs. Good got knife handles, other small wooden objects

I've purchased and used Tru-Oil for years. Tru-Oil is easy to apply with a cloth or foam brush, and leaves a shiny durable finish on wood. The name having "Oil" in it is a bit deceiving though, as this product is not an oil. In fact, I doubt it contains much if any oil at all. I would equate it to being more like a wipe-on polyurethane than an oil. You can tint the Tru-Oil with a few drops of oil-based stain to achieve a slightly darker color than Tru-Oil alone. Work time is about 3-5 mins before the product starts to get gummy. Depending on the thickness of the application, the product dries fully in 18 to 36 hours. The Tru-Oil must be fully cured before applying an additional coat. Knocking the finish down with 0000 extra fine steel wool will provide a better result. The included absorbent pads come in handy to protect the work surface and are reusable. Sometimes I want less gloss and will go for a wipe-on satin finish polyurethane which is easy to apply and costs less than Tru-OIl. Like polyurethane, once the bottle is open, it will start to slowly harden and crystalize at the top of the bottle, so while a bottle may go a long way and last a long time, its useful shelf like is limited. I'd like to see Tru-Oil offered in a satin or matte finish.

great

I am restoring a 1894 Winchester made in 1904. I wanted to give the Old Winnie the most authentic look. I am very satisfied with this 1st time use with this product.

I had never used true oil before only varnish which is nice provided the varnish covers well and doesn't require more work time but the true oil I was very happy with quality and finishing and polished to a beautiful luster. And previous reviews said semi gloss . With small buffing wheel and very lite grade polish it was surprisingly beautiful finish.

Works like it should used it for sealing a guitar neck

Simple to use and works well...

No color. It is just transparent.
