<p>I googled a little but I didn't find anyone with my issue here ...</p>
<p>I am currently applying Danish Oil to a Basswood body and it's just drinking it in, like after 8 coats it still looks grainy, unlike the maple neck after 3 coats it looked almost ready to go. I didn't fill grain because someone said "what grain?" in relation to basswood. has any one else experienced anything like this? I'm worried I'll run out of danish oil before I finish this and I haven't found a store around hereā¦</p>

I'm worried I'll run out of danish oil before I finish this and I haven't found a store around here that sells it since woodcraft closed. (if I do run out I have some water based lacquer that I think won't work well on an oil based finish, correct??)</p>
