Indeed! I've used a lot of the American "barracks soldier" version of Hadoke's linseed-based goop (BL, turps, beeswax but without the Venice turps resin)as a shiny patch over not so great to worn finishes. Said to be quite permeable and it certainly water-spots. Question: Did the "London oil finish" originally suffer from the same failings? What is the timeline? Does the current version contain synthetic resins or urethanes?
