So, this probably results in a significantly more weather/water resistant finish compared to just painting wood in unprocessed lin seed oil a few times, right?
Just wondering _how much_ more durable it is to justify the effort.
I recently painted my wooded bike luggage carrier with flax seed oil .. going to find out how resistant to rain that made it. Smells nice at least :-)
Before that, I had smeared vaseline on it some time ago, just because that was the only thing I had on my hands on the occasion. It wore off surprisingly fast from a few dozen times getting heavy rains, considering that stuff is totally water insoluable.
