Finishing Bed Wood with oil: Does it last, Let's just see

[Rust_never_sleeps]

This might be common knowledge, but you can add a product called "Japan Drier" to oil finishes and it will speed up the cure time. It's a catalyst, so also forces a cure throughout the film(otherwise it's from the surface in due to air contact, which can particularly suck with porous woods like oak)

"Japanning" is an old term for lacquer, btw, ICYGAS
