Default RE: Refinishing rifle stock

BB :It isn't Canada, it's Brownelle's that wont ship to Canada.

Eld: I have done a number of stocks with Tung Oil, and I have had these stocks out in rain and snow. I've never experienced this "whitening" that you refer to. Perhaps it's just that I have been lucky.

Kona: As previously mentioned, I have done a number of rifle and shotgun stocks with a satin finish tung oil ( Formby's ), and usually give the stocks anywhere from 10 to 12 coats. I have found the finish to be durable and attrasctive, leaving the stocks with a nice sheen, but not a reflective one. It is easy to apply and can be done over a fairly short period of time.
