By GEORGE FLYNN

One of the recurring reac-
tons we encounter in discuss
ing refiniShing of old furniture
with lobbyist refinishers is
this: But how do they get
such a fine cover with oil?"
They" usually are COL
lectors who, by trial and
error, have learned how to
make an old piece of cherry,
mahogany or pine into a
cleaning masterpiece.
If there is any mystery
about oil finishes. the answer
can be found in two words:
Patience and work.
Oil finishes certainly give
the soft, deep look that most
owners of a fine piece OF fur
niture want to achieve. For
our own part, we find them
most satisfying.
In attempting to put a piece
in peak condition. first make
the decision whether you must
remove the old finish entirely
or retrieve the piece by clean
ing and feeding.
Cleaning can be done by
several methods. Carbon
tetrachloride will strip away
dirt and grease and reveal
what's left OF the original
yarnish or shellac protection.

wrung almost dry, is safe and
effective in wiping of surface

If the finish is intact or

until the oil stops soaking
into the wood.
Some persons wipe down the
coats with a very fine steel
wool, to remove the oil coat

the same time. This process

Good furniture wakes can be
bought commercially or you
can mix your own by dissolving

Once again it's elbow grease
that makes the difference.
Apply thin coats of wax and
rub. Don't give up until you're
positive that you'll be satisfied

This takes time, because
the oil must be allowed to
penetrate, to pour life into the
dry wood fibers.
Keep the piece in a warm
room and stroke an even coat
of raw linseed oil over the
surface. Be sure that the oil
is not cold or it will coat un-

a double broiler helps speed
penetration, but it creates a
fire risk.
