I just used it on walnut with some sapwood in it and it's amazing! The amount of gloss you get depends on how far you take your sanding. Less shine like a matt maybe stop at say 320. I took mine up to 1,000 grit and its like a semi gloss

Cost is next to nothing when you get a jar for £45 UK and I'd say you could finish 30 full guitar body's and necks easy! Compared to my favourite tru oil that's around £10 a pot and that will finish 1-2 guitar body's to a high gloss. So it's definitely a good deal! And Brad does it have a shelf life once opened? Would look great on a nice ash body.
@Peasmouldia

This is the comment I was looking for. The fact that you quoted the UK price was a bonus. Your shelf life question was the other thing I wanted to know. As I'm averaging about one guitar every three years, that would definitely be an issue. Ta.

I’m not aware of any shelf life issues. I would think not because you can reapply over itself indefinitely. Might need a touch of their solvent to reconstitute it at some point if there’s an issue would be my best guess.

If you watch the Odie’s Oil channel’s videos, James (the creator) says that the Odie’s Oil if left alone fir too long will develop a skin. Pull that out and do not re-mix it back in. They sell Bloxygen also (Argon canister) to displace the regular air in the container once you finish using the oil.

Hi Brad. I'm learning alot from your videos. What applicator are you using? Does it change the color of the wood very-much? (the dark, looks lighter vs. the original?) How is the Feel of the finish as opposed to Tru oil (for my guitar neck). I subscribed. Great content explained & presented on your channel.
@BradAngove
3 жыл бұрын
I’m using a very fine abrasive pad. The impact on wood color depends on the wood. It’s generally a mild darkening on woods like mahogany. Almost no change on something like a rock maple. The feel is similar to a tru-oil or polymerized tung oil.

The problem we have with Odies oil is on the dining table, which is walnut. The oil turns white when you place a plate or serving dish on the table, even with a 1/2" thick hot pad even your dinner plate turns the oil white and it leaves big white rings on the table. Pretty much tried everything to get it off but looks like we'll have to re=sand the table. We wont use it again once we do refinish it.

got a question for you, Brad, this is starting to make me crazy...I just picked up a Tele kit, mahogany body/maple neck, both already sprayed with a poly sealer...I've been going back and forth on what finish to use (spray can solid colour, modified Tung oil, Odie's Super Duper Oil) but I'm seeing quite a few posts online saying go with the paint, the reason being you can never be sure of getting off ALL of the poly sealer on the body and neck. I know you've worked with a lot of kits before and I'm generally happy with the kit but I want to know what you think...should I be confident I can sand off the sealer and use probably the Odie's (either Oil or Super Duper Oil) or should I just go with a spray can colour?
@BradAngove

If you want to go with the Odies don’t be afraid of the sealer. It’s not like normal oils. Even if you end up with some sealer on there that is sanded smooth but not off, the Odies will be fine. As long as you’re not adding a pigment and trying to get that to go into the grain.
