I've used it for about 40yrs, I have tried many other finishes but always go back to Tru-oil. The fact that it can be used as a touch up at any time is the BIG Plus. Thae fact that it blends and can produce a High gloss or Satin finish. I cut the high gloss with 0000 steel wool and apply wax over it all. You can't tell if the finish went on 30 days ago or 30 years ago. I guess you can tell I really like the stuff.
