Danish Oil

Danish oil is unique because its high linseed oil content and its colorant (gilsonite) allow it to penetrate and color unlike pigmented stains. Gilsonite is a mined ore, which comes only in a black walnut color. It is different from pigments, which come from earth clays. Danish oil's best use is on oak where the walnut colors are carried deep into the grain and produce a look that pigments cannot match. The linseed oil in Danish oil dries to a durable finish and can be used as a one-can finish; more coats help build durability. However, for more protection, Danish oil can be top coated with Arm-r-Seal or any other high quality oil based urethane finish. These pure urethanes penetrate and preserve the natural look as well producing a much harder finish.
