What's with all the exaggerated, theatrical hand motions?
Are there any videos of this being used on rusted bolts?
I haven’t found many videos on this product, unfortunately. But the product works well on everything for me.
be careful storing the rags you apply oil with; they can combust randomly when stored
🙏
Need about three coats with 24 hours between each coat. Takes about three weeks to cure then you can polish.
🙏👍
I still see rust on the hammer though
🤷♂️Full video in the link
@@TexasArtCompany that's asinine
Nice job😄!
Thank you 🙏
Removes rust from aluminum? If it claims to remove
Yep 👍! That’s what it says.
I'd like every step to have a drawer.
🤩🤩
How does this compare to linseed oil?
Cost wise linseed is better, but for longevity and durability Rubio is much better.
🎉
🙏
you couldn't have a prettier piece of wood for this video. Cedar is hard to beat. Good instructions by yourself. Thank you.
Well thank you 🙏, I agree.
Like that flag. Great job
Thank you 🙏
So will you be putting any kind of floor in ? great work btw
I will as the budget permits. Thank you 🙏
Awesome!!!!!!! Sub'd!!
Thank you 🙏
Nice Job, I really like it. I want to build one just like yours, do you think is better to buy it and do the mods like you did? or do everything from scratch? thanks in advance for your answer!
Definitely buy one on Amazon and mod it. I’ve built a few out of Home Depot supplies, and the price was way more. The quality of pipe is a little bit thinner, but no one will ever tell, especially if you add some unique touches. You got this!
A. Cut the Linseed Oil with denatured alcohol 70/30 (30% alcohol) this will help the wood absorb the oil. B. Repeat the process of oiling the wood over a 2 or 3 day period layering on 2-3 total coats or until the wood appears no longer wanting to absorb more oil. C. Allow to dry thoroughly for several days or as much as a week before applying any top coatings. It is best to not apply any coatings over wood that is protected with linseed oil until the oil has completely penetrated the wood and the wood has dried. 2-3 weeks depending on the type of wood, it's age, and thickness. It's best to use natural waxes over wood protected with linseed oil. Some synthetics will not bond properly with the linseed oil or will react negatively with it and can cause 'unusual' color shifts. Learned that one the hard way. Had some old cedar heartwood turn yellowish/pink on a piece I was restoring.
👍👍👍
Thank you for sharing these tips...
Thank you for the support!
I’m curious what the thoughts of someone working with epoxy regularly are about the idea of coating a standing tree in epoxy. I have a set of trees that grew intertwined to reach a pretty good height. One of the trees then died unfortunately, and I have been wondering if there was any way to possibly preserve it bc it looks really interesting wrapped together with the living tree. This is a very early stage idea. I suppose the other possibility would be to take the dimensions and build a copycat sculpture around where the dead tree was after having it removed.
Moisture and trapped air would be your largest concern. But I don’t see why it would be worth a try. It should preserve it similar to driftwood. Maybe try a sample first. It will yellow in the sun though.
Very helpful. Thank you
Thank you
This sounds like an infomercial. Do you have a business relationship with the manufacturer? I.e., sponsorship or marketing deal? Did you get the product for free in return for this “review”?
Not at all. I would love for a big brand to think the same thing. Thank you 🙏
Is finish prepping the bare wood with 220 too coarse?
That’s about as far as you want to go. Good call!
Would this work with metal that is in hot temperature like an engine bay or bbq pit
That I’m not 100% sure
I used linseed oil with beeswax on the wood around my hot tub outdoors. 5 yrs later I’m doing it again but probably could go another 5 it’s so effective.
That’s great news, thank you for sharing
Thanks!
Thank you 🙏
It’s just phosphoric acid and hand sanitizer. Don’t waste your money
Hardly a waste of money though
Can I add a stain before I use linseed oil? As long as the stainer is also oil based? Or will the linseed oil not work?
As long as the stain has cured and is dry. I wouldn’t rub it in a lot, light coats to build up a finish.
Throw in a bit of oil poly and it will really strengthen it up.
Nice tip 👍
Very Helpful. Thanks.
Thank you

Trying to treat the 2x4s I used as the framework to my chicken coop. I should have bought treated...I know. Is linseed oil a good way to preserve the 2x4s?
It would certainly be the cheapest but will require a few coats and may need a few more down the line depending the weather conditions. Spar or polyurethane might hold up better but will cost a bit more. An oil based product in general will always be more resistant against weather and water.
Hello not my native language what is the elbow grease and where do I buy it from store? Many thanks
Term for a “little hard work”. I wish they sold it 😂
That solution (vinegaroon) is also great for dyeing leather black.
Great tip! Thank you 🙏
Brushing on a concentrated solution of instant coffee before using the vinegar solution will give an even darker tone to the wood. Not as necessary with oak (higher tanic acid content), but really helps darken pine or poplar.
Awesome tip, thank you 🙏
this is just ebonizer? i use this to make black leather usually you'd add a tannin to the wood such as walnut dye (or start with an already darker wood) and this will result in the wood turning pitch black like a piano. the issue i have with this video is that it is entirely possible for someone to follow your steps, and end up with pitch black wood instead of an aged look, on top of that it doesnt really look aged, its just darker and more red, with one piece going slightly blackish. you show 4 solutions but dont tell us whats the difference (or ive just missed it), is it more/less ageing or more/less added vinegar? im not sure why you didnt just present the video as a video on ebonizers and instead present it as an ageing solution? it feels dishonest. i apologise for the negative comment, i wish you the best of luck
I appreciate the feedback. Your concerns are valid. I learned that the longer the solution is aged, the deeper brown it gets and diluting the solution with a heavier vinegar is what created the grays. I do agree marking the solutions would have definitely helped follow along with the process, but I also had the thought maybe it generates more than one view when needing to review the process. I apologize if the video was misleading, I am still finding my balance between enough information to give confidence to the viewer and keeping their attention. I will certainly take into consideration your thoughts when creating future videos. Thank you for the support
yeah thats fair 👍
I wonder if it’s the tannins in the wood reacting with the iron oxide in the vinegar solution?
I wish I had a more scientific based answer for you but I thought it was pretty cool.
@@TexasArtCompany well I just replied to this and UA-cam removed it before my eyes. Nothing wierd. With.
@@NoMan-zw5wb hmmm
@@TexasArtCompany I was just going to tell you to research oak gall ink or iron gall ink or ink from leaves. The recipe is easy Tannins Iron oxide The tannins come from wood like oak falls that are concentrated tannin. They react with iron oxide or rusty water and then black. The ink is perminant as it etches the paper with tannic acid.
Galls oak, galls…. Spell correction is my nemesis.
Just one is enough?
The amount of coats will depend on the wood and end use. Some woods will soak it in depending on their species and how dry they are and may require more coats. You may also want to use more than one depending on how you plan to use the project.
@@TexasArtCompany It’s for a seating area should I do 3? 🤔
I accidentally got some on my thumb and washed it off within 40 seconds. Should I be concerned?
I wouldn’t be.
Had some light surface rust on the door. This actually removed the rust in like 60 seconds. Almost instantly. Works really well!
Amazing to hear. So glad I could help! Thanks for the support.
I always found it interesting that the product specifies that it shouldn't be used in gaps wider than 4 inches, but you and other reviewers all seemed to have no problems insulating a standard wall.
For safety reasons, you shouldn’t spray too much at once, but I think it’s more cost related. I recently covered that wall with Barnwood. With that in mind I chose to just spray the whole wall. Figured it couldn’t hurt to have a bit of extra insulation and thought it was a better video. But you are 100% correct I would recommend this for joists and harder to seal areas rather than waste it on larger open areas like I did. For my second kit I did just that.
Hi. Can you polyurethane afterwards? Thanks.
I would not mix them. If you’re looking to add a warmer look to the wood look into an oil based poly. That should give you the best of both.
I just purchased an old fashioned bread box from an estate sale for 50 cents! After sanding off the light varnish it had and years of crud, I've decided this will be my experimental Linseed oil project. Not a table top so it won't be exposed to harsh influences. I'm hoping for the best to protect my homemade bread. Thanks for your instruction.
Sounds like you got a winner. Perfect choice. Very forgiving finish (easy to work with). Good luck 🍀
@@TexasArtCompany thanks for responding it means a lot for a beginner. Your example was well above my level.
Didn't even know a product like this existed! I'm still going to call in the pros on my 1100 sq. ft. shop space, but this would be amazing for the little 150 sq. ft. shed I want to renovate and turn into a useable space! Liked, subbed! Thanks for this video! Now to watch some others. :D
Made my day, Thanks for the support 🙏.
Great stuff, seems cheap and easy to do.
Thank you, Not the cheapest but the speed makes up for the coast. 👍👍
Change Insulting to insulating. If you want.
Thank you 🙏
Dude i just came here from your linseed video! Im subscribing! Fuckin great
Made my day! Big year upcoming ✌️Thanks for the support
I just found you while researching linseed oil and its uses. Super good quality video man thanks for the content
You’re awesome, thanks for noticing the video work. 🙏🙏🙏
I am using this Rust Dissolver right now. It's expensive but I like that it's a gel and 50% water since the chemical reaction uses up water. It's not too strong to CREATE rust (I hope). hahaha. I have used the cheaper 80% phosphoric acid "etching" gallon but it's too strong and flash rusts the metal.
Great feedback, I hope all goes well
Thanks for this video! What's the difference between Spar Urethane and Polyurethane? Is there a reason to use Poly instead of Spar?
Great question, Spar is an advanced version of a traditional polyurethane. Spar claims to provide more durability and more flexibility to help expand and contrast with the wood over time. I also find the oil based is a bit stronger outdoors with the advanced UV protection.
@@TexasArtCompany Thanks! It sounds like spar is altogether a better product, so I'm trying to figure out why anyone would use normal poly instead. Cheaper? From my brief research, it appears that spar urethane is thicker, more protective, and flexible, while Poly is harder, tougher, and not as "gummy". Might be that poly is the best choice for furniture unless it's going outdoors?
I tend to agree, it sounds like you have covered all the basics. Poly as always been the go to choice for woodworkers but Spar seems to be a newer more advanced formula that makes up for any shortcomings a classic poly formula may have. It does add a richer "yellowish" hugh that may also be a draw back if the wood is a lighter natural tone. As well as a small cost difference and availability. As the market becomes more familiar with this formula we may find that it becomes the standard. Rust Oleum and Varathane offer a wide variety of both products in many different finishes and I think you have highlighted the need for me to compare them all. Thank you for the support and feedback.
"Natural river".... 😂😂😂😂
Tricky tricky 😂
