I refinished last month a Browning Explorer with tru oil(put like 4 coats) and a month later the oil odor is still strong.Should I sand it again and use urethane?Does Urethane smells equally?Thanks in advance.
TruOil is a linseed based finish. Give it time, it'll go away. Quite frankly I like the smell, but then again I've done a lot of rifles in linseed and maybe I'm biased.
I have used Tru Oil lotsa' times on bows and arrows-never a problem.
I've use it often - smells like success!
Wow, I took a double take. I thought my wife started this thread!
:biglaugh:
I love the smell of linseed oil. And I wouldn't think animals would associate it with humans.
That was funny bowwild!So yall trying to convince me that tru oil smells good?I' ve never thought about it that way..hmm..
you could always take it out in the yard and roll it in something dead . works for my dogs after I wash them and they don't want to smell like shampoo .
Drewsbow, lol.
