I finished turning a bowl and decided to finish it with Watco danish oil. I don't know if its a problem or not but it soaked up a tremendous amount of it. The weight of the bowl has increased by quite abit.
Being a bowl, I figured a great way was to just pour it into the bowl and spread it from there. First few attempts, it soaked in so fast before I was able to do much spreading. Same happened when I turned it over and poured some into the base. In fact it could still soak up alot more oil but I stopped. Should I continue till it stops absorbing?
Anything I need to worry about? Will the oil eventually dry out of it? I am kind of puzzled because I used it before and it barely penetrated. The bowl is made out of some spalted material.
