I've been happy using Minwax Helmsman Spar Urethane cut with mineral spirits. Dries fast, seals well, low fire hazard!

If I have been waiting 3 days for plugs to dry with BLO, how long are you waiting for your plugs to dry? |

I should say that I have been pleased with BLO in my limited plug making - and it appears that this is some pretty good sealing - but always interested in what others (far more experienced than I) are doing. |

19 to 24 hours and your good to go. Usually I seal one night and prime the next night after work. Might even be able to go to the next step in 9 to 12 hours - they seem dry the next morning - but I have not tried it. |

Good reminder Larry -- I am partial to Val Oil 60-40 but all the precautions apply with that mixture.  |
