Yes. Love the stuff. My only gripe is with the lid, total crap; make sure the threads are spotless before putting the cap back on..
The product itself is first rate. Available in most places, even Bunnies.

Oops, sorry, I wasn't talking about water-based. That'll teach me to read the heading

Bunnings Fyswick have two types of packaging... screw lids and a plastic pop up one I buy the latter, I heard that they were not going to stock it any more. The ones on the shelf are very dusty suggesting that it has been in stock for a while. If it is not be bought in any more what will we do??

Make our own? I remember having seen a recipe or two around.. but can't remember where at present. The recipe was for the oil-base WOP though.

Yeah, I posted a recipe a good while ago, borrowed from the Blue Mountains woodturners website IIRC.
From memory: turps or white spirit, linseed oil and poly.
Yeah, here 'tis:
