B/L oil ?

I've been having some cracking in my 9"-12" needles from the hook hole to weight hole. I made a new batch and kept them overnight 12 hrs. in the B/O; 60% & 40% Pure turps. solutution. The ones that cracked were soaked for 1 hr. The overnighters gained 1/2oz. in weight. I hope they loose some of this added weight. Any recommendations. I've used popular for these needles. The birch ones are OK so far. The older populars needles are still OK. They were soaked for a few hours. Need some helpful info. Thanks
