I've got exposed Douglas Fir timbers and 2x6 decking in the house I'm building. I've debating what kind of finish to apply. The timbers aren't kiln dried, but the decking is. I'm going to try a 50/50 mix of Raw Linseed Oil and Turpentine (read about it in some timberframe literature) on some test pieces. I'm concerned that it may yellow over time, even if it looks good at first.
Do any of you guys have experience with how the Linseed Oil finish will hold up? Any other recommendations to try before I commit to something?
Thanks for the help,
Adam
