Question What happens when

I f I dont cut boiled linseed with anything and just use it straight? Will it just not penetrate as deep or will it never dry? Just wondering before I ruin some blanks.

A previous recent thread indicated by not cutting it with something, it would, in fact, never dry!

Was told mix 60/40 boiled linseed with mineral spirits.

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Boiled will dry just takes a long time................
