I would be looking up the MSDS for whatever thinner you would like to
use. The idea is to thin the boiled linseed oil to the point it
penetrates into the wood and once the solvent vaporizes the remaining
oil will oxidize to a solid.
"White spirit" is not real nice stuff. The majority of these solvents
are one of the various forms of hydrocarbon that have been found to have
an adverse impact on humans.
The gum turpentine is the least offensive of the bunch.

Would "white spirit", which is made in a nearly-odorless form, work with boiled
linseed oil in a less stinking way than turpentine and seal wood effectively?

I wonder if a slightly thinned latex paint would be the answer.

Is there any other substance less odorous than real turpentine that could be
used with llinseed oil as a sealing mixture - or is there any other
combination of ingredients (save silicone caulk or similar items of
synthetic nature) that might be combined that the odors and airborne
pollutants would dissipate relatively quickly?
