mopardave Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Anyone know the difference between these 2 oils? Been using Watco, but I’m at my weekend home and all I have is Minwax. Should I use the Minwax over the Watco? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubo Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Look before you leap Take a piece of clean wood draw a line down the middle and try both side by side Watco did not delaminate my veneer so far Tung oil, IDK ? Buy a veneered piece at a thrift shop and experiment on it 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geoff. Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Hey Dave, you could try it on the bottom of the speaker or the back of a riser... Tung oil is funny, it sometimes dries shinier than I was hoping for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mopardave Posted November 28, 2021 Author Share Posted November 28, 2021 I will try the minwax on the bottom just to see, but i plan on picking up another can of Watco next weekend. Thanks guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
