Who has used a Sam Malouf mixture?

I used wipe on poly, the one you get from Bunnings. I found this on the top shelf well above eye line. :U

Originaly I had 10 ltrs of Tung Oil Seal (had driers in it) that I got from
a cleaning suppliers. But since then I have mostly used FW China Wood Oil
And 30mls mls of Terebine to a 1ltr mix.

How long does such a mix keep or is it meant to be mixed fresh as required?

mostly it will keep for a few months in a good air tight bottle, usually it will turn to a gell and you know its dead. I usually mix about a litre at a time. Sometimes I'll use it in a day and then next time it will sit there and go off.

So if I have clients that want a more glitzy finish I the poly but then buff it back, still pretty quick but has a very different feel and "feel" to poly.

thanks for the insight
Given my work is usually for the house, ie the family, I'm happy to supply a more natural finish :D
