Organoil and levos Oil comparison
My first post! Been researching both natural oil products for use on a new large Jarrah table top and not sure which to use. I believe Organoil is a little difficult to apply due to sanding prior to the oil drying but Levos is simply wipe on and off 2-3 times. Do they maintain their look or eventually go yellow? Logevity, Easily touched up etc Any words of wisdom would be appreciated !

Whatever oil you use will darken the timber, and as you are using Jarrah, a dark timber, the table top will go very dark quite quickly. I suggest you investigate other finishes that won't daken the timber and won't need as much upkeep.... my 2 boobs worth

Have never used Organoil but have used a lot of Livos brand oil. The Livos oil I've used is called "Ardvos" and it is superb on Jarrah. Easy to apply and pieces are then easily maintained with any good quality furniture oil, eg. Gilly Stephenson Orange Oil.
I WA, as far as I'm aware, it is only available from Planet Ark in Fremantle.
