Greetings,
The only wood preservative I have found to be worth the trouble is raw
linseed oil, applied by the old rule of: once a day for a week, once a week
for a month, once a month for a year, once a year for life. With this,
wood will stand up to Texas, sun, termites and all. If biodiesel
Hello all,
I just did some testing of biodiesel as a wood stain. I used oak as the
base wood and applied a coat of Bio. The color was as pretty as can be
if you like natural wood with out shadowing enhancements deep in the
pore structure. It is a deep penetrator as compared to other stains.
Hm. I've heard of people down in Ecuador perserving bamboo by
painting it with diesel -- which we all recoiled at due to the
nastyness of it. Using biodiesel sounds better -- I wonder how it
will stand up, considering biodiesel is biodegradable? But then again
so is tallow, beeswax, etc,
