    I used wipe on poly, the one you get from Bunnings. I found this on the top shelf well above eye line.

    Originaly I had 10 ltrs of Tung Oil Seal (had driers in it) that I got from
    a cleaning suppliers. But since then I have mostly used FW China Wood Oil
    And 30mls mls of Terebine to a 1ltr mix.
    How long does such a mix keep or is it meant to be mixed fresh as required?

    mostly it will keep for a few months in a good air tight bottle, usually it will turn to a gell and you know its dead. I usually mix about a litre at a time. Sometimes I'll use it in a day and then next time it will sit there and go off.

    thanks for the insight
    Given my work is usually for the house, ie the family, I'm happy to supply a more natural finish
