I bought a can of teak oil, which also seems to be a mixture of linseed oil and mineral spirits, a can of tung oil.nothing else in it, just tung.and a bottle of Howard's "Feed-N-Wax".which I think is a mix of orange oil, mineral spirits, carnuba and beeswax.Īnyways, here's my plan I wanted to bounce if off some of you guys that have already done this to see if I'm tracking here.ġ) Rub the neck down with 0000 steel woolĢ) Apply 1 coat of Teak oil.wait 24 hrs to dry, wipe off excess and buff the neck, lightly rub w/ steel wool, repeat 3xģ) Apply 1 coat of tung Oil.wait 24 hrs to dry, rub down the neck, steel wool, repeat 3xĤ) Give the neck a week to cure, buff the neck and apply the wax to help seal the neck, then buff it again. From what I understand, tru oil is mostly a blend of linseed oil and mineral spirits, and I found something that seemed comparable at Home Depot, which is Watco Teak Oil. ![]()
