Silly question of the day. :icon_scra I'll spare the gory details but due to conditions beyond my control a Christmas project was delayed and now it is crunch time.:confused_ I had intended to use a BLO finish sealed with brushing lacquer and it is my understanding that the BLO needs to be fully cured before lacquer application. Can I speed polymerization with a judicious application of heat (heat gun) ? This is a small weather station so we are not talking about a huge mass of wood to heat up. Thanks :wsmile:
