wombatie Posted March 27, 2020 Report Share Posted March 27, 2020 I use a fair bit of Danish Oil and I always put some into a smaller container because I find that by brushing it straight from the tin it tends to get thick and gluggy by the time I am half way down the tin. Well 2 - 3 months ago I bought a couple of small jars with screw top lids and I half filled one with oil and when I had finished using it for the day I put it in the fridge ( we have a spare in the garage ) just to see what would happen. Well I have cut and oiled 15 mobile phone holders with 3 coats of oil each and just had to top it up a little once. Normally it would have had to be thrown away a couple of time by now. So ask you wife if you are allowed to put a small jar of Danish Oil in the fridge and give it a go. By the way when I say small jar I mean small it is only a couple of inches tall. Give it a go what do you have to lose. Marg OCtoolguy, lawson56, poupster2 and 3 others 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmmcrafts Posted March 27, 2020 Report Share Posted March 27, 2020 Maybe that is why I've gone through my whole gallon this time... No frig.. but it stays out in the cold shop ( no heat ) and this time my gallon is almost gone... and that usually doesn't happen for me.. Though another thing I've done too is to shake the can up good before opening / using it.. and when mine goes bad it's more about getting moisture I think.. as it gets thick but also turns a milky look to it like a small amount of water got in from the can sweating.. I need a new can.. but not going out to get one until the Corvid19 disappears... May have to mail order me one.. I get about 4-6 months to a gallon.. and only have about a pint or maybe a little more in my tin now.. scrollingforsanity, wombatie and OCtoolguy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
