Oil finishes need time to cure between applications. After you have applied the true oil let it set up at least over night, longer in cool temps or high humidity before you rub it out with steel wool otherwise you are pulling the finish out of the pores you are trying to fill. I prefer to build up a slurry by rubbing the oil into the wood with steel wool, let the slurry dry overnight then rub off the slurry with steel wool. If you want to speed up the drying process place a 40 wat light bulb in a drying box with the stock leave one side open to allow air circulation.
