I have bought a few bad bottles of Tru-oil over the years, the finish stayed tacky. I use a lot of the stuff on bows and guns, the finish from my last bottle would dry in an hour, the weather was warm.

I was thinking maybe he had a bad bottle. I just finished a rifle yesterday with Tru-oil.
I was hanging it in the sun and putting on a thin coat every 3 hours.
turned out nice

Well, ya, but I see you're in Texas. 😄
I've done this before with good results.
I have read about the armor all trick before but never saw a video of someone doing it I’ve never done it myself but surely would be something to experiment with if you are so inclined…Maybe someday I’ll give it a try.
I would probably rather experiment on handgun grips vs a rifle stock. If anyone here tries it, let us know how it worked for you. Or if you have already tried it.
Oops, I see that Greg Y has done it with good results. I didn’t see that at first just watched the video.

Ha! ladies panty hose, where do you get that now days? When I was in the Corps back in the earl 60's.I finished my M 14 with Truoil, all hand rubbed, it looked B Ut E Full. The Sgt Major in the Sixth Marines didn't think it was so nice. I had to remove it along with many hours of extra duty. Have not used since
That’s a good story. Was not like everyone else’s, too shiny would reflect light in combat or no reason, just because he said so?
