 == Composition:==
-Birchwood Casey's Tru-Oil product is a mix that is primarily composed of Linseed Oil and Polyurethane as well as proprietary drying agents. Likewise, a large portion of the oil is said to be soy-based. The drying agents allow the oil to dry very quickly. So fast in fact, that when applying it, it will likely begin drying during the application.

 It is not quite a true oil finish, nor a polyurethane, but is a product that appears to seek the benefits of both of these types of finishes. Many appear to choose Tru-Oil because of this versatility.

 == Application: ==
-Tru-Oil is typically applied thinly either using either a rag, or as Birchwood Casey recommends, rubbing it in with your bare hand. The latter may be preferable as it eliminates the need to take special care with combustible rags after application.

 This product can result in a relatively flat appearance after a lower number of coats, a satin appearance after a higher number of coats, and even a semi or high-gloss finish if special care is taken with wet sanding, buffing and so on. Likewise, a higher number of coats can of course be made more dull using buffing methods as well. However, it is still a much more shiny finish compared to oil and this should be expected even with a lower number of coats.
