Never had any problem with TruOil. May try something else sometime, but don't have any real compelling reason to do so.

I have used Tru Oil since the late 70’s. I am always pleased with the end result. The first one I did was my Dad’s VH. I used it a lot in the field and the finish remains in very good condition to this day. Cheers Jack

A winchester 94 deluxe refinished with Timberluxe. Also used their stain with the finish. You can't quite get that look with tru-oil.

Thats a gorgeous finish Brian! Did you use permalyn to seal it or Timberlux? I recall we had a discussion on here at one point where you said you were a big fan of permalyn's sealer. Just curious what you used. Might give timberlux a try on that Trojan I have coming my way.
