Tru Oil is very forgiving and it won't get darker and darker. It will only get shinier and shinier. Read Brian's advice carefully. He's got it nailed. If you aren't satisfied, knock it down again GENTLY with your 0000 steel wool and go at it again for another coat. I've found that I can buff these finishes after they are dry (but before they are fully cured) very nicely with a wool flannel rag. Try that, too. Just keep at it until you are satisfied. Your Tru Oil is not contaminating your stock. It is building up on the surface. It dries very quickly, and cures more slowly.
